Can anybody help please. Thanks

You only have part of the install, clear your internet cache and redownload. The install should be 31,957KB in size.

Thank you. I have partial success. The converter is installed, however when I'm trying to convert the flac file into Wave (uncompress) it returns the error message: Error reading DB command File.

This is the exact error message?

Yes

The error likely means that your security software is blocking dBpoweramp (so music converter cannot talk to coreconverter). What software are you using?

Windows 8.

Windows 8.

... and what antivirus/security software, if any, are you running on the Windows 8 PC?

I have Kaspersky.
It looks like you are right and the problem is related to security. I started the program as administrator and converted flac files to wave with no problem. Thank you

I need help with a similar problem here. I was using Windows 10 with R16 with no problems at all. Then yesterday I have made a clean Windows 10 AU install with dBpoweramp 16.1. Today I needed to convert an ALAC file to FLAC (-8) and it gives the same error:

Splitting Command Line:"C:\Program Files\dBpoweramp\CoreConverter.exe" -dbcmd="C:\Users\Rodolfo\AppData\Local\Temp\dBT49A8 .tmp"
->-> [dBCoreConverter::ReaddBCommandFile]
<-<- [dBCoreConverter::ReaddBCommandFile]
*** Error: Error no encoder specified. [dBCoreConverter::ParseCommandLine]

But it ONLY happens when I try to encode to FLAC. I tried another formats and files and always I have the same error to encode to FLAC. ALAC, MP3, WAV etc everything works well. I can RIP CD's to FLAC and I already tried to change the temp folder.

I only use Windows Defender. Sandboxie and Shadow Defender I have here too, but Sandboxie is only sandboxing my browsers and Shadow Defender never gave any problem with dBpoweramp before (it is invisible, way below where dBpoweramp works).

Another thing, I changed the default folder but I don't think it was really changed, I can see it trough log file and my custom temp folder is always empty.

What is going on?

Sorry for my bad english.

I just do this, the problem persists.

Try starting dBpoweramp as an elevated administrator, right click on dBpoweramp icon on desktop >> run as administrator

then select a file using the browser and convert it to flac, does it convert?

No. Same problem.

Re: dBpoweramp Reference R16 re-installation

Try using multi-encoder first with wave as the only encoder added, then if that works add flac as the only encoder in multi-encoder.
