Yesterday evening the software (Vegas Movie Studio 17 Platinum on Windows 10 64 bit) was still running smoothly, this morning the program start suddenly stops and the program would like to send an error message to Magix.
First of all - when the small start window said "GPU-accelerated video processing is being initialized".
Then I used this trick with CTRL + Shift. Since then, the start has always stopped - only earlier, namely "Video plug-in factory is being created ...". Interestingly, there was the same problem with version 15 Platinum that I also had installed.
I then completely uninstalled both versions according to these instructions:

Then reinstall version Vegas Movie Studio 17 Platinum. Unfortunately I still can't get past "Video-Plug-In-Factory", so it didn't work :-(
Nothing has changed on the computer overnight. At least there was no notification of any Windows updates - and also in the Windows update history I see no entries with today's or yesterday's date.
Can someone help me? How can something like this happen suddenly?
