To continue using Win7, you must go to the folder “C:\Program Files\HappyOtterScripts” and delete the file “VCEEncC64.exe”. Then rename “VCEEncC64_Win7.exe” to “VCEEncC64.exe”.

Hi Wayne, I’ve been trying out the demo for a while and ready to buy but I have one problem (see attached screenshot).
I’m using Vegas Pro 17 and want to render a small event to a new track that has a Mercalli 4 effect on it. The screenshot shows that the RENDER button is greyed out. Not sure where I’m going wrong here.
