The current '''Kdenlive''' on Windows® (October 2018, version 18.08.2) has a few issues that have workarounds. The purpose of this wiki page is to document these issues and their workarounds.
 
 
=== Play/Pause Issue === <!--T:3-->
 
<!--T:4-->
Currently, if you use any method from playing the preview on '''Kdenlive''' for Windows®, the preview of your project will not play. This includes trying to use the spacebar or trying to press the play button using your mouse.
 
<!--T:5-->
'''The quickest and easiest workaround''' is to use the <keycap>Spacebar + Right arrow key</keycap>. Press the <keycap>Spacebar</keycap> and then press the right arrow key.
 
<!--T:6-->
If '''Kdenlive''' seems blocked hit <keycap>Ctrl+Space</keycap>. Now the play heat starts from the beginning and you can click with the mouse into the timeline to play from there.
 
<!--T:7-->
Another option is to change the settings. To do this, go to <menuchoice>Settings -> Configure Kdenlive -> Environment</menuchoice> and change the ''process threads'' to 2 or above (this solves the bug but this block other functions).
 
=== Qt rendering crash === <!--T:8-->
 
<!--T:9-->
When switching from kdenlive for windows 17.12 --> 18.04/18.08, a Qt rendering crash appears. To make sure this doesn't happen, you need to edit the <tt>kdenliverc</tt> file in the <tt>appdata</tt>. To access your appdata, press <keycap>Win + R</keycap> (<keycap>Windows</keycap> key and <keycap>R</keycap> key simultaneously) and type '''APPDATA''' (all caps). Go to <tt>local</tt> and within it rename <tt>kdenliverc</tt> to <tt>kdenliverc.old</tt>.
 
=== Any critical bug === <!--T:10-->
 
<!--T:11-->
This describes the process of doing a clean install on Windows®.
 
<!--T:12-->
Firstly, delete your normal '''Kdenlive''' folder (containing the application)
 
<!--T:13-->
Access the '''Appdata''' folder (<keycap>Win + R</keycap> and then type '''APPDATA''' in full caps). Go to <tt>local</tt> and search for folder <tt>kdenlive</tt>.
 
<!--T:14-->
{{Note|If you have any saved effects or clips stored in your library, make a backup of the library folder.}}
 
<!--T:15-->
Then once you have backup up your library folder, delete the <tt>kdenlive</tt> folder.
 
<!--T:16-->
Reinstall the latest version of '''Kdenlive''' from https://kdenlive.org/en/download/
 
=== Kdenlive cannot be deleted === <!--T:17-->
 
<!--T:18-->
If you want to reinstall '''Kdenlive''', it may tell you "The file or folder is open in another program". Windows® then won't let you delete '''Kdenlive'''.
 
<!--T:19-->
To fix this, press and hold <keycap>Ctrl + Shift + Esc</keycap> & expand the task manager by clicking <menuchoice>all details</menuchoice>. Then find <tt>kdenlive.exe</tt> & <tt>dbus-daemon.exe</tt>, and click <menuchoice>End task</menuchoice> for both of them.
 
<!--T:20-->
Or download the [[file:Kdenlive-kill.zip]]. Unpack it and just double-click the batch file which kills all running '''Kdenlive''' processes.
 
=== "Clip is invalid, will be removed" === <!--T:21-->
 
<!--T:22-->
This bug can appear if you do a clean reinstall of '''Kdenlive''' (see above). Simply close and open '''Kdenlive''' once, and it should be fixed.
 
<!--T:23-->
If this is not solving the problem follow [[Kdenlive/Manual/Windows_Issues#Any_critical_bug|these instructions]].
 
=== Kdenlive crash === <!--T:24-->
 
<!--T:25-->
On Windows® 10: update your graphics card driver.
Some crashes could occur of incompatibility of the graphics card with the newest Windows® updates.
After you have updated the driver re-start the computer and try again by starting <tt>kdenlive.exe</tt>.
 
== General Issues == <!--T:26-->
 
<!--T:27-->
The current '''Kdenlive''' version (November 2018, version 18.08.3) has a few issues that have workarounds.
 
=== Audio Pops and Ticks in Render === <!--T:28-->
 
<!--T:29-->
If this problem appears make sure the audio file is: 16-bit PCM WAV.
