It is very intereseting that RadioBOSS confirm the same strange behaviour (like opening playlists). Yesterday I made all settings I needed. I restarted RadioBOSS but "Remove gap between tracks" didn't work at all. In this morning I turned on my laptop and all settings, I made yesterday, worked nice.
So, I found this issue. If something works wrong in RadioBOSS, there is necessary a restart of PC. The problem is that if in that moment is a Live program everything will go down.
I think that is necesary an improvement for taking settings without restart the computer. I understand to restart RadioBOSS, but the entire PC for ordinary settings?

You never need to restart your PC to change settings in RadioBOSS, it always been like this. Actually most of the settings can be changed even without restarting RadioBOSS.pety said:
In most cases odd behavior caused by (either or both):
- a virus
- antivirus software which interferes with operation
If this odd behavior continues, please provide more information on those issues (if possible, with videos).

New OS installation. No virus. A very good antivirus wich consumes small resources.djsoft said:
This is a real problem, Dmitriy. I do not like to waste time with non-senses.
But maybe can help you this thing. I made yesterday a transfer from one PC to another PC of RadioBOSS settings (import backup). After this import I played some tracks. Maybe after 3-4 hours I needed new setting and RadioBOSS did not take them even if I restart it. In this morning I tested again and RadioBOSS worked very nice. So, I understand now that PC restart solves the problem.
Resource consumption is not the problem. Antivirus software "hooks" all operations other software does and scans them. Sometimes they do it incorrectly, causing interference and resulting in odd behavior.pety said:
You reported in 2013 - antivirus blocked RadioBOSS to do usual (and 100% safe) things like opening folders, browsing folders in file explorer, using prelisten feature:

This is not a problem in RadioBOSS - clearly, it's a problem with AV software.
It looks like a coincidence. Technically RadioBOSS never requires system restart to change settings. What settings were not applied until you restarted the PC?pety said:
Without detailed information it's impossible to give any advice and/or fix it - I'm also still not sure if it's a problem in RadioBOSS or if it's caused by something else, as we've never encountered it here, nor anyone else reported anything similar... If it happens again, please make couple of screenshots. Also check if there are any bugreports in the settings folder.pety said:
