I am at my absolute wit's end. Vegas stopped working out of absolutely nowhere several months ago, and I've tried upgrading, downgrading, reinstalling, repairing my .NET frameworks, updating my drivers, uninstalling Visual Studio Code, anything and everything I saw to try online, and the program still crashes on launch.
I am on an x64 Windows 11. My GPU is the GeForce RTX 4070 Super, with drivers up to date. I've never had this much trouble before, so if there's any other info needed I will provide it, just tell me..
Almost every version has specifically crashed when the launcher says "Initializing UI," except for the Steam version of Vegas Pro 23.0, which crashes as soon as the editor UI displays. That's the version I want to work the most, frankly, so here is the log it gives me. Please help me.
