you gotta be kidding me…
The program won’t open anything in it. Video event FX, pan/crop, all the options menus don’t do anything when I click on them.

You definitely have a corrupt installation. I’m pretty sure it’s not supposed to operate like that.

I tend to agree with Jeff Schroeder, but can you be a bit more specific? Is this right from istall, whilw working etc?

Ok, so basically, the program works fine, but no menus or buttons that are supposed to open a box in the program open anything. they seem to minimize somewhere, but I can’t tell what it’s doing.

I’ve seen this happen on laptops that have been running with a second monitor. The laptop gets moved somewhere, a new monitor is attached but configured to be on the left rather than the right, and all your dialogs are appearing in the right-hand area where the second screen used to be. Or something like that. Is that ringing a bell?

I have experienced something similar to this when event FX windows open up to … nothing … and after a few attempts, eventually load. I used to get it mainly in the Sony Soft Contrast FX which I use a lot and sometimes in the Sony Saturation Adjust FX.
There was a suggestion a while back that a corrupt windows font could wreak havoc and cause window layouts not to appear correctly, but I don’t know which one.
If multiple functions are not working, it does not hurt to uninstall Vegas, reboot and reinstall Vegas by right mouse clicking the executable and choosing Run as Administrator.
Keep an eye out for messages indicating your firewall or antivirus software is blocking something unintentionally.

Check that you haven’t mistakenly docked one of the popout windows like (video FX) and the window is now tucked away in one of the docking areas.
Also check to see if the popout windows are appearing underneath your taskbar. You can unlock the taskbar and shrink it down to a flat line at the bottom of the screen – and maybe see your window under it…
