Hello everyone I just reinstall Vagas Post on computer this Vegas Pro 19 and my C:\ drive has about 256GB remaining on it. My F:\ drive has over 1TB available. Under Project Properties it has Prerendered files Folder it go to the C drive. For Preferences Temporay Files also go to the C:\ drive. Under Video Tab it has Use external video capture application: and under that is has C:\Program Files\VEGAS\VEGAS Pro 19.0\VidCap60.EXE. Not to sure about that one but can I move the others to the F:\ drive or do the have to be on the main drive? Note: I will be upgrading to Vegas Pro 21 soon.

It's OK., I have only the Vegas Program on the C:/ and Render-, Prerender-,Capture- and other files go to other drives or partitions

I move all the temporary and cache file locations for VEGAS Pro and Effects off my c drive personally. No issues with that at all.

Ditto. I've long used another internal drive for all those temp and cache files for many programs including Vegas Pro. Currently, it's the E drive which leaves the C drive for the OS and programs, and the D drive for media/project files. No problems here either.

How exactly do you move Renreder, predenderer to other drive? I was searching in Vegas options but it seems i can only change temp(cache), capture and VST effects location. Also, what are other files if related to Vegas itself?
