**Vegas crashes everytime it loads, re-installing does not solve problem!!**
Hello everyone,
Ref: Sony Vegas Pro 11
I have been using Vegas Pro 11 for roughly a month or two for a project I am working on. All was going well untill I decided to upgrade my storage drives and to move all my media files to the new drives. Foolishly I did this before I rendered my video, the work I had done was only kept within the .veg Vegas file.
After I moved all media files to the new drives the media had new drive paths, for example its all now kept on the Z: drive, rather than split across the D:, E:, and F: drives. Vegas advised the media files were missing, so I used the Vegas search function to locate them, which it did with 90% of the files. However the media still showed as offline in Vegas.
I then decided it was a good idea to uninstall Vegas and start again witha fresh install. However, after the fresh install Vegas wont load at all, everytime I try to load Vegas it immediately crashes on the loading screen. I have uninstalled, then reinstalled multiple times now, and every time it crashes.
I’ve really no idea what to do. The only other thing I can think of is to format my C: drive, but this is a major last resort, I want to avoid this at all costs for obvious reasons.
Please can anyone help me with this??
many thanks
Ryan

Try cleaning out .net and then re-install it.

Microsoft .Net
Its a programming framawork, and wha tmany new applications is build on.you remove the framework under Controlpanel -> Add/remove programs
You dont want the old version 1, 2 or 3. Add the latest Version (4) and you should int he clear. Some older programs need 3.5 installed, because because some poor programmers did a bad job of reffering to code.

You might need to do a “clean” install
There is instructions for doing this on
The Sony website. It is quite intensive but
It worked for me when I had issues -
ok thanks for the info everyone, I will try remove the .net and reinstall version 4.
failing that, I’ll try do this “clean” install… although Ive had a look on Sony forum and on google but cant find any steps on how to do this… theres accounts of people doing the clean install, but cant find any refernce to how to actually do it….
… any chance of a link?
many thanks

I suspect that the settings were not removed when you uninstalled and reinstalled Vegas. If you uninstall Vegas again and remove all the Sony folders from the Program Files and Program Files(x86) groups and then reboot and install Vegas you should have better luck.
If your considering starting over, get a cheap spinning hard drive to install on then you can clone it when you have it setup the way you want it and restore the image to your SSD. And you’ll have a backup ready to go if the SSD fails. This is just a suggestion. I image all computers I use to a portable USB hard drive.
Good luck -
Would be good if there was an uninstaller that could do all
of that in one single go for the link Mike provided…..lolSteve Rhoden
