Crossfade "x" shortcut not working, Crossfade greyed out

[Przemek]

Hello ,
Can Anyone help me please ?
My crossfade feature in Cubase 8 Elements stopped working.
Seems like crossfade is unavailable at all for some reason cause not only the shortcut does not work but also if I try to get into crossfade window - it s just not available - greyed out.
I have tries many projects - so it s not the matter of just one project but it s generalised to all projects.

So just can t crossfade two audio pieces - and while that is one of the basic feature it s so much frustrating.

Can anyone please share solution if came across some thing ?

THanks / Przemek

2019 here, Cubase 10 Pro.
Just got my crossfade grayed out while working on the project I have to return today.
First, few days ago crossfade stopped to work while there was no overlap, today it stopped working at all.
Tried changing all my preferences to default, did not help.

EDIT: SOLVED (a bit):

Reinstalling Cubase did not help. Some preferences sit beyond the installation itself.
HOWEVER - I discovered the Safe Mode function (you have to click CTRL/CMD + SHIFT + ALT) when you launch Cubase (before the splash screen with loading appears). I disabled preferences (it resets Cubase options - even though I tried it manually in "Preferences"). It helped, crossfade works for now.
