Failed To Load Track from Serato Library

Deleting the tracks from the main EP collection will fix the most common problems. Alternatively, you can move your existing Engine Prime library out of the way to see how things go with an empty collection.

How to temporary disable your EP collection? see my reply under this post:

There are alternatives if you are on MacOS, but I promised not too self promote too much here
