Have you tried pressing “0”? Or, just don’t press anything, as if you are not on a touch-tone phone.

Error 41: “Too many activation codes”
If you are seeing this error message, it means the software has been re-activated on several different computer configurations and reached an activation limit. This is a common occurrence. When you reach one of these limits, you will not be able to register again until you contact customer service. There is no way to resolve this error without assistance.You could try sending an email, or call first thing in the morning.
This is a customer service issue, not tech support.

Also, telling me to upgrade to Vegas Pro or some other program is not going to help me. It’s not an option right now.
I know nothing about the history in Studio, but make sure you have the latest version. There was a known bug in Pro 11 that sounds like what you are describing:
Notable fixes/changes in version 11.0 (Build 510/511)
Fixed an issue that could cause events to use the wrong media in certain circumstances (seen when project is later loaded).Steve Mann

“I just assumed once I imported media into the program to edit, copies of the media had been transferred into SV and were remembered there, no longer needing copies of the video files to be external to the program. I’m a little confused by this principle. If you could please clear it up I’d be happy,”
The project file (.veg) just points to the media. Vegas is non-destructive, that is it never does anything to the original media. On the timeline, an event is a pointer to the media clip. You can have multiple events on the timeline from the same media clip. (There are no clips on the timeline, just pointers to the media. Those are called “events”). You can trim an event, add a bunch of F/X to the event, and even pan-crop the event but you never touch the media. You can have more events pointing to the same media with each doing something different from the other events. This is non-destructive editing.

Are the projects, or part of them, on removable drives or network locations?

Use “MediaInfo” to see what codec the video was created with.

First, turn off Auto Ripple.
What is the file format?
Does the file play properly in an external player, like VLC?Steve Mann

In my case it remember the last setting. What I am curious about is, why is it a problem to save the markers?

I wish there was a setting because I want my markers saved by default. I did some testing and it appears that the “Save Markers” is “sticky”. that is, if you checked “Save Markers” when you last “rendered”, then the next time you go to “Render As”, it will still be checked.
