Hello,

On december 2nd i buy the pack VEGAS Pro Suite 23 to do video editing for the company where i work in France.

When attempting to install the software on a professional workstation, the installation fails due to the company’s high-level security system (restricted Internet access and blocked online services required during installation).

In order to proceed with the installation in this secured environment, I would like to know if it is possible to obtain offline installation files, or if you can suggest an alternative solution that allows installation without an active Internet connection.

I contact Magix 2 time without response... And I can't use the software on my work computer. I had to install it in the meantime Sony Vegas on my personal computer waiting for some help... (it's been 20 days that i buy it)

I remain at your disposal should you need any additional information (proof of purchase, license number, etc.).

Thank you in advance for your assistance and support.

The processor and information of my computer work :

Version number of your product: VEGAS Pro Suite 23 (the pack, with ACID pro 11, Sound Forge Pro 18, coreFX suite, Analogue Modelling Suite plus, EssentielFX Suite, Vandal, VariVerb II, etc...)
Processor: Intel Core processor (professional laptop)
Operating system: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
RAM: 32 GB RAM
Sound card: Realtek High Definition Audio
Graphics card: Intel Iris Xe Graphics + NVIDIA T600 Laptop GPU
Internet browser: Google Chrome 143.0.0

I don't believe it is possible to register without going online. Plus some codecs need first time activation which also requires internet connection.

Anyway this is a user forum so regret we are unable to assist with your query. You need to approach Vegas Support direct with your request.

As I worked during my job as AV-technician in an environment with high security-levels (no internet connection, no USB data access etc). It wasn't even not possible to install Vegas on that system. I used an extra standalone laptop to edit with Vegas. This laptop I could regularly update online.

Thank you for your feedback @EricLNZ @3POINT

I have already opened a support ticket with VEGAS regarding my request, but unfortunately I have not received any response so far, which is why I am writing on the forum...

After discussing the issue with the person in charge of IT in the company where I work, he explained that having an internet connection that may not be the problem; The main issue is that VEGAS attempts to access certain “secured” system folders, and even with administrator-level privileges, it's not possible for him to complete the installation

The only viable solution would therefore be to obtain offline installation files

I will try to contact VEGAS for a third time, hoping to receive a response...

Thank you!

@JPAK Keep in mind that Vegaspro is regularly updated and that after each updating an online activation is required. I would ask your company to provide you with a standalone PC with internet connection just for the video editing.

I think after initial "connect" and registering, the 'world' can be disconnected for few weeks.

Before reconnect, it's better to wipe all VP cache,logs,history and so on..

@JPAK

If you have more than one drive, the "C" drive, you could try to install Vegas on your "D" drive.

@J-Toresen

The company blocks all USB drives and external hard drives to prevent hacking. The only drives I have are the company's (M:) (O:) (P:) (R:) (T:) (U:)... The problem arises when I try to open the file (since all the software is installed on my work laptop), but it won't launch due to the security level. The company's IT technician explains that having files offline is common practice for large companies and that they are fully aware of the security procedures. But I don't know if that's true....

@JPAK I assume that you edit camera recordings for your company, how will you import/export that media on such a secured/blocked system? To me a standalone PC/laptop is still the best solution for you and your company.

IT should certify the removeable media that you use.

You're absolutely right: for now, I retrieve some videos into my iCloud from my computerwork; otherwise, our project managers send me screen recordings made from PowerPoint. I write the script and then record my voiceover from my personal computer with a better microphone. But for the future, the company wants to develop communication within my department, and I don't yet have the appropriate recording equipment (i'm preparing the cost); we should have started with the editing software first... I think that, indeed, the best value for money at the moment is to have a standalone computer. Thank you for your help!

I completely agree, but it seems that, according to the company's IT technician, the IT managers with more authority don't, and I quote, "deal on a case-by-case basis." It has to be said that this person isn't very helpful... So I'm pretty much on my own trying to find a solution...

You can export from PowerPoint directly to video (or stills), no need for screen recording.

It's mainly for new tool features, when project managers have an emulator-like vision. I ask them to record their screen with PowerPoint, then save it as an .mp4 file and send it to me on Teams. It's a bit time-consuming, but it works well. Then I edit it like a YouTube-style training video. When it's possible, I record directly from my phone (if I have access). I also film with my iPhone (for longer videos) to present certain products useful for people in the field. The software I currently use is "beginner-level," and I'd like to upgrade to more powerful tools like Vegas to offer more polished edits. I sent a third message to the support service; I hope to get a response.
