I recently got a new laptop that has windows 8 on it.
I cant seem to get ANY utau to sing.
They all work fine on my desktop, but it's slowly dying on me.
None of the Japanese in Utau or Oremo are showing correctly.
I have japanese language installed on my OS.

Applocale isnt compatable with Windows 8..

Oremo wont even load.

what is going on here??

Are you CERTAIN you're in Japanese Locale? If the kana isn't showing correctly, this sounds a lot like a locale issue.

Ah, that said, also make sure you have the latest OREMO and UTAU from the official sites. Unfortunately, I'm not immediately familiar with Win8 issues, so please bare with me!

Yes as Halo said try changing your locale manually first. Also, although it might not help, you could try running the programs in compatibility mode.

I have windows 8 too and everything is working fine for me but I am in Japanese locale.

Okay so I made sure my locale is Japanese, restarted, that seemed to fix the issue with the language not showing properly.

One More question, Utau plugins should work as normal on Windows 8?
Have you encountered any problems with it at all yet?

This is really helpful thank you both. ; v ;

Yes most of the plugins should work as normal. There are a couple that might not work.

So far the only plugin that actually fails for me is the Playing multiple windows plugin.
