  • Current VEG file over-written by old auto saved VEG

    Posted by Mike Stone on July 31, 2014 at 4:27 am

    Hey there,

    so this morning I started my saved sony vegas main project, but then it asked me to restore my VEG file, which I did because I was still dizzy and couldnt not remember if I saved the main project or not. It turned out to be a huge mistake. Now my main project is lost and I have the project I worked on 2 weeks ago.
    Is there any way to fix this? I dont want to start all over again…

    Any help appreciated.

    When you save in Vegas, the VEG file is copied to .Veg.Bak and then the current VEG file is overwritten with the new save. So if you haven’t saved again, you might look at the .veg.bak file.
