          Thanks for logging this, @Anthony_Valcic!

          Yes, we are tracking an issue where some users have to quit and relaunch SoundFlow after the first boot of the day.

          I'm curious, does this happen every time you restart your computer, or only when on the first boot up of the day?

          Are you using any VPN or firewall that may restrict the internet on first boot?

          So far, we have had a hard time reproducing this one in-house. But it's really helpful to have your report to identify patterns!

          We'll keep you updated on this thread as we have updates!

              Thanks for your reply. No VPN here, and I just tried a computer restart after being up and running and the problem repeated after restarting.

                    Linked issue SF-3121 updated: SoundFlow 6.1.3 is now available for download and should address the issue causing some users to need to close and re-open SoundFlow on first launch of Pro Tools.
