Huge Sony Vegas Problem
I make videos very commonly in Sony Vegas for youtube, however, earlier today, something happened and my Sony Vegas no longer executes.
It started when my Sony Vegas wouldn’t open – it would execute, but the loading screen would be stuck on something like ‘creating file i/o manager’.
After researching, I discovered that this was quite a common problem and the fix was to replace something with the avi .dlls, which I did.
This seemed to fix the loading problem. However, when it finished loading, I tried to open the project I was working on previously.This led to Sony Vegas crashing and taking me to a page to download an update, 10.0e I believe.
After downloading, Sony Vegas will no longer execute when I attempt to open it. I double click on the icon, and nothing happens.
Please help, this means so much to me.

it may be your last project that generates the crash. vegas loads your last project starting up. if it is messed up – vegas will crash. why did you replace dlls? replace with what? messing with system files when you are not what you are doing usually will get the problem worse.
at that moment i would try this
1
the last project media – move the whole folder somwhere, change its location. then try to open vegas. if it opens and asks for media files – the problem was with last project’s media files. if this doesn’t help i would do
2
reinstall vegas using your original installer, not the downloaded update. uninstall first, than install from the beginning. try to start it. if this won’t help

i would clean the system from vegas as deep as i can
– uninstall
– delete all preferencies and settings folder
– run a registry scan for application data (search for “software” keys and delete all “sony” keys
then install vegas again and good luck.no guarantee. you didn’t give to much details about the problem. i would try this at first. if reinstalling the application doesn’t help, probably means that you have messed up windows somehow imho

I agree with Paul’s thoughts, but check to see if you have a RESTORE POINT in your operating system. It’s under Control PanelAll Control Panel ItemsRecovery and allows you to back out any previous changes. Sometimes it works!
