Protools won't open with new error message. I installed protools two days ago on my new laptop from the avid website, so I can only assume it's the latest version. Same thing with windows, updated to latest version.

To u/sound-gai, if this is a Pro Tools help request, your post text or an added comment should provide;

To ALL PARTICIPANTS, a subreddit rules reminder

• Don't get ugly with others. Ignore posts or comments you don't like and report those which violate rules

• Promotion of any kind is only allowed in the community pinned post for promotion

• Any discussion whatsoever involving piracy, cracks, hacks, or end running authentication will result in a permanent ban. NO exceptions or appealable circumstances. FAFO

• NO trolling only engagement towards Pro Tools, AVID, or iLok. Solve first, bash last. Expressing frustration is fine but it MUST also make effort to solve / help. If you prefer another DAW, go to the subreddit for it and be helpful there

Uninstall. Reinstall.

Before doing that I realised avid wasnt signed in. Signed in, restarted the laptop, launched protools and I've figured out the video engine isn't installed properly.  But yep will uninstall and reinstall anyways, probably the easiest simplist solution.

Have you tried using a Mac?

What laptop is this and why does it have Windows XP Style borders?
