Reaper dead?!

Hi to All,

I was using Reaper v 5.211, an a few days ago it turned its back on me: just completely stopped working. When I either press the space bar or click the 'Play' button, the status indicater changes from "Stopped" to "Playing" and the playing button changes to green, but nothing happens: playing cursor doesn't move along the timeline, clock doesn't count bars/beats, no sound whatsoever.

Launching Reaper from another User Account (so with its own Reaper.ini settings, so this can't be the cause) yields exactly the same result.

Things I've noticed:

1/ different appearance: some colors have changed (e.g. docked big clock is black on white background, was (I think) light grey on dark grey); TCP has thick black lines to the left and right sides; measure indicator ("4/4") and the three "Selection" values have borders drawn around them. When launching in another User Account, though, colors were normal.

2/ while launching Reaper, on the far right of the Windows Title bar appears the text "Audio device closed". This dissapears as soon as Reaper is (or rather: pretends to be) ready. This did not happen while testing in the alternative user account. If it hasn't always been so, have no idea if it started when Reaper collapsed or any time earlier already.

I have downloaded & installed v. 5.23 , hoping this would restore things to normal, but to no avail (on either User Account).

Anybody familiar with these symptoms, preferrably with an adequate solution? If not, would it be a good bet to back-up all files and folders in the C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\REAPER folder, uninstall and re-install Reaper, and re-instate the backed-up C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\REAPER files?

My setup: Intel Core i5; Ram 4 GB; H/D 1 TB; Windows 10 64-bit.


Any help will - obviously! - be well appreciated, so many tx in advance for that,
Yves Kuypers.
