Wow...Sony Post Effects? And you actually posted your serial number? Ouch. You might want to remove that serial before someone steals it from you.

I uninstalled Vegas Pro and Effects and reinstalled. I still get following error when opening Sony Post Effects; 'You must activate VEGAS POST before you can use Vegas Effects. Please close this application, activate VEGAS POST and try again.'

Just to be clear, there is no such thing as Sony Post Effects.

Sony sold VEGAS 6 years ago, and has had nothing to do with it since.

Sony VEGAS has not existed since VEGAS Version 14.

VEGAS Post was introduced with VEGAS Version 17, VEGAS Effects is part of the VEGAS Post Suite.

Being that VEGAS is now owned by VEGAS Creative Software, which is owned by Magix, we just call it "VEGAS" now.... so "VEGAS Pro", or "VEGAS Post", or "VEGAS Effects".

Never post your serial, unless you want some random on the internet to steal your account.
