Hi!
I'm getting the "UnsupportedAudioFileException: file is not a supported file type" error on mp3 files. I'm using BeaTunes 4 4.5.7 on Windows 10 Pro N version 1803. I tried installing the Media Feature Pack, but it didn't help.

   Hey Jussi,

   Could you please upload your logs via Help -> Upload Logs (from inside the app). Also, do you use the Flac file format at all?

   Thanks!

   Hi!
   I uploaded the logs today. I don't use the Flac format.

   Hey Jussi,

   Please update (for free) to version 4.6.18 available from https://www.beatunes.com/en/beatunes-download-old.html

   Using 4.6.18, does the problem persist?

   Thanks,

   Hi!

   Updating both BeaTunes and the Media Feature Pack solved the problem. I think I may have had the old version of the Media Feature Pack (for build 1511), matching it to the Windows version (build 1803) was the key. I think the problem may have been started by the Windows update, which should have been followed by the Media Feature Pack update. As I have the N version of Windows that lacks those media features natively, they most likely are not updated automatically.

   That probably explains it!
