Hi together, when I try to start KRONOS Editor 3.1 on my Windows 11 Pro 23H2 (Build 22631.3880) machine, it does not start. The initial screen is shown, but then the Editor crashes. I have reinstalled the Editor two times, plugged the KRONOS in an out, both no effect. Does anyone have the same problem?

Hi ssab and welcome to the forums.

See the compatibility chart below.

Hi KK, thank you very much, this is the answer (even if I´m not happy with it Think

) So I have to wait, until KORG fix it, I guess?

Hello ssab,

Yes, unfortunately their "under examination" thing is unclear and might just be a polite way to say it won't work. Hopefully, you can find maybe another computer still running on Windows 10 to use the Kronos Editor. If your goal is mainly to reorganize your programs and combis, note that there are also other freeware that can help you. The best ones are PCG Tools and Tidy Kronos and they are free.

Any update on this? My W10 computer bit the dust, so I had to get a W11 machine. Kronos Editor 3.1 will not work. As OP indicated, it will load the Rendering screen and then crash. Tried all the maddening fixes and reboots and reloads and reinstalls, all to no avail.

I can't use it in Cubase as a VST, either.

The compatibility chart indicated above shows 23H2 as latest build for W11, but my machine is alread 24H2.

Can Korg have the courtesy to let us know where they might stand with their efforts? Folks with the Kronos were very good to Korg by purchasing a flagship synth, and it seems a shame that we are kept in the dark.
