How do you do any of this? what is a  pnlControl?

The pnlControl has been removed. This means you'll have to edit the designer.cs file for your forms and remove the pnlControl references to use this. For example...

Change: this.pnlControl.Controls.Add(something); To: this.Controls.Add(something);

Further issues with the new release as follows:

Audio is played back at higher speed. Cannot change it. Tried deleting everything on soundboardPC and adding it again. No change. My Mobile App will not save to EZ-Cloud nor will servo Profile. Basically I can no longer use this software. Any ideas?

Here is error message...

Version: 2019.12.06.00

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---> Could not find file 'C:\Raid\Webs\EZ-Robot Uploads\EZ-Cloud-ServoProfile\2724.jpg'. at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(SoapClientMessage message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream, Boolean asyncCall) at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.InvokeAsyncCallback(IAsyncResult result)
