Sonic Foundry was sold to Sony and now Magix. I guess that was the end of life, because my license no longer worked. A short time later, maybe in CooEdit 2000 or so, Syntrillium sold Cool Edit to Adobe and it became Audition. I liked Cool Edit more and purchased a 'LifeTime license' from Syntrillium. I bought Cool Edit 95 and Sonic Foundry Sound Forge when they were introduced. Very Off Topic. It is interesting to follow the history of these types of tools.
I tried to install that, but it required an installation of early DOTNET installations to proceed, so I quit at that point. I have the SF 11 installer as well as many earlier ones, maybe back to the Sonic Foundry days (I never through anything out, drives are cheaper than my time), which is the last version when SF was owned by Sony. I attempted to figure out when this started - I know it happened in SF 12, 14 and 15. These past few days I've spent many hours rummaging through Procmon logs of Sound Forge startup and tutorial processing so I am getting accustomed to it more. I have my TEMP system environment folder set to C:\Temp and the temporary file folder in Sound Forge prefs set to D:\Temp and I've seen them in C and D root drive as well as C:\Program Files\Sound Forge. I think they have always been empty, but my memory is faulty these days. Yes, these have appeared here and there in root folders at various times. The result.* files are created in the root of the T drive - I'd understand if they were in the T:\Temp folder, but not in the root! I have a T drive on my machine which has a bunch of backup files, installers and the like, but also a Temp folder (T:\Temp) which happens to be the target for my %TEMP% and %TMP% environment variables. * I say "a folder" as I'm not sure what the logic is. If I enable it, I see what you see.ĭo you also see result.html and result.xml created in a folder* every run (both essentially empty files)? Ah - I have show logo splash-screen disabled.
