Default PT 10.3.7: pre roll doesn't work

Hi forum

My PT 10.3.7 has been working perfectly in the last 7 years and I've recorded a lot of audio.
But suddenly the Pre roll stopped functioning. The button lights as green as ever, but it just starts recording without any pre roll.

I tried trashing the Database folder from the HD icon.
And from Preferences: deleted com.digidesign.protools.plist - ..lock file, DAE prefs, Digi setup.osx and Protools prefs.

But still no pre roll function.

Can you advice me how to solve this problem?

p.s.
I found a work around (very proud of myself): With Dynamic Transport I have the same pre roll functionality.

.. I can record now, but if anyone can advice me how to fix the original pre roll function, I would appreciate it greatly.

A moderator perhaps?

I use PT 10.3.7.



And I noticed in my Avid account a 10.3.10 Installer upgrade: can I use this to solve the pre roll problem?


Can I install this upgrade without losing any of my recordings?

I found the solution: the templates I used were, or seemed to be, a bit messed up. I made new templates from scratch and the pre roll is o.k. again.

Happy and proud.
