Vegas Pro 11 crashing when loading big(ish) project

[Dieter Walter]

If a large project file locks up while loading, try this: 1) open Vegas Pro without a project file, 2) press Alt-D D to reset the default window layout, 3) load your big project file, 4) press Alt-D whatever to restore your preferred saved window layout. I can’t figure out exactly why this works, but it seems to have some relationship to the Trimmer window being open.
