Some Windows users experience this issue. Absynth will not start. Windows error reports mention ucrtbase.dll failure. In this case, this is the workaround: 


You can try to enable: "Beta: Use UTF-8 for worldwide language support".

You can find this under: 


Windows Start > Settings> Time & Language> “Date, time, & regional formatting ”>“ Additional date, time, & region settings ”> Region> Administrative> Change system locale


If deactivated, activate the check-box "Beta: Use UTF-8 for worldwide language support".

Then restart the computer and try again. 


(Sometimes the system language needs to be set to English instead)

    That make other program not working. So a new version of Absint that works i Windows is a must.

    This also concerns FM8. I am waiting for more than a year for NI solving this bug.

    The workaround is a no go because some other programs wont work.

    Same here, my Windows username has special characters. Using the "workaround" is not an option because it breaks other applications as well as filenames with special characters.
