Location of Vegas Settings Files

Mauriceh9 wrote on 2/4/2011, 1:47 AM

I want to backup the settings I've created in Vegas in case I want to recover from a system failure. I mean the various settings in the Effects, Track Motion, Pan/Crop etc.

Anyone know where Vegas hides these settings files? I've tried doing searches to see if I can find them, but no luck.

Appreciate any help, Maurice

Vegas stores the most of its settings in the registry (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sony Creative Software\Vegas Pro\10.0) + various files on your HDD (C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\Roaming\Sony folder - for Vista/Seven)

You can back up this registry key and folder. Also you might want to take a look at http://vegasaur.com/vegas-presets-manager

Hi,

Thanks for your reply re backing up Vegas Settings. I had a look at the Vegasaur link. This package appears to have a lot of overlap with Production Assistant which I've already got. How does it compare with Production Assistant?

I couldn't see any offers for upgrade of the Vegasaur package, do you always have to pay the full price for upgrades?

Cheers, Maurice

Hi Mickey,

Thanks for that, hadn't noticed the bit about discounts on major version upgrades.

Cheers, Maurice
