Starting REAPER screenshot

To start REAPER, just double click on the REAPER desktop icon. You might also wish to consider creating a keyboard shortcut for this. For Windows users, this is done using the Shortcut tab of the icon's Properties dialog box. Right-click over the icon to display this.

Tip: If REAPER fails to open but instead returns an error message then this is most likely because of an issue with a third party plug-in. Try opening it using either of the methods described below (section 1.8).
