Cuetools works fine and then gives this error:flac.exe has exited prematurely

I was splitting Cue sheets like there was no tomorrow. I had done like 200 in a row and then suddenly CUETools stopped working and gives me this error: "flac.exe has exited prematurely with code 1: De pipe is beëindigd."
I did not change the settings after my initial set up. It worked for days and hundreds of cue sheets. And then it stopped working :'(

I tried: Checking settings, check to see if was a faulty cue sheet, delete and unpack new version of CUETools, wipe it all and download new version,...
CUETools seems to remember the settings somehow. How do I completely get rid of this?
And what caused this issue?

Version:2.2.5

So you're saying this error occurs with EVERY cue now?
Or you just can't get past the ONE that gives the error?


'code 1' is common for wrong command-line parameters (though can occur on other errors including a corrupt file)
With CUETools closed, you could try deleting (or renaming so you have a backup) the settings folder found at %appdata%\CUE Tools\ (or if running portable; the \CUE Tools\ subdirectory within the program directory) if perhaps corrupted by a bad shutdown. A new directory will be created the next time you start the program.

You could try the libFLAC encoder (which is the built-in version of flac 1.4.3)

It happens with all the files.

I switched to libFlac but then got: FLAC__STREAM_ENCODER_CLIENT_ERROR.

I'll try the delete settings suggestion and come back.

Could you find out in the meantime, what had happened?
