Here is post I had explaining my solution to this problem and one other one.

I had the some thing. Even though Windows explorer had .veg associated to SVP 12, I found in the registry that SVP 11 (aka vegas110) was the default.

Regedit
Find: HKCUsoftwareclasses.veg REG_SZ vegas110
Change to: HKCUsoftwareclasses.veg REG_SZ vegas120

If you are interested, I used ProcessMon from Microsoft to capture what SVP 12 was doing when it launched the nested veg file.

Hey Guys,

Thanks a ton for your inputs. The registry hack is the way to solve this. I wonder why the SCS team has not resolved this one.

Marks solution is the short version of Jims tank cannon approach.

Wouldn’t have gone that way without you guys.

Cheers for another squashed bug.

I opened a ticket to SCS to document this solution so they have the info to incorporate a better solution.

Can someone guide me to the file itself? I got into Regedit and got to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT > Vegas110_w64

Not exactly sure where it is and how to change it. Thanks in advanced.

The key name is:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareClasses.veg]

the value (double click on the word “(Default)”) needs to be changed to “vegas120”
without the quotes.
