I'm having a similar problem :c specifically the part about "libstdc++.dll.a" failing to load, did you find a solution?

Hi,

Are you using GHC 9.4.2 or later? It is needed as of Tidal 1.9: TidalCycles version 1.9.0

Hi @Zeraco_Saitam I'm sorry that you had the same problem. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a solution, so I had to stop using tidal for good.

Did you find a solution?

Nope, I'm about to make a complete Windows reset and i'll try again because I can't live without tidal hahah

install and activate GHC 9.4.2 or 9.4.2 version and install Tidal. This fixed the problem for me.
