FL Studio is a truly amazing software which in my experience is mostly stable and professional. Unfortunately for some this just isn't the case, with daily crashes and errors. These crashes are frustrating but often very simple to fix if you follow some best practices and look through the knowledge base on the loop talk forum.
Fix and prevent FL Studio Crashes by following these tips:
0:00 - Intro
1:45 - Let projects load without clicking anything
2:15 - Watch the CPU Meter!
2:45 - Set a Project Folder for each new track or song
3:55 - Save zipped backups every day
4:30 - Clear your drives
5:40 - Disable mastering effects
6:15 - Prioritise your Channel rack
6:45 - More audio and fewer plugins
9:08 - Use stock plugins and troubleshoot 3rd party plugins
10:40 - Fixing buggy plugins
11:25 - Sound card settings
