Hello, my Vegas Pro just stopped working as of 3 days ago. I can't load videos, I can't edit, it freezes when I just look at the program and it constantly crashes. The app is literally inaccessible which is a problem because I edit videos 5 days a week. I contacted support 3 days ago and have still yet to get a response. I am using default settings. HEVC and AVC unchecked. Hardware decoder is off. I just don't understand what is going on. I've uninstalled and reinstalled MULTIPLE times. Please can someone help me this is ridiculous.

 

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800xt GPU: AMD Radeon Challenger 9060xt. 32G RAM.

It seems like it loads but has a problem when you load this specific project. Do either of the known good projects in my signature work or do they cause issues too? If they load then it's media or an Fx or something specific to this project.

Elsewhere you wrote " This all began when I installed Windows 11 update 25H2, I also just tried rerolling back to 24H2 and problem still is there"
Though it's unclear if there's causation there or a coincidence.

Reinstalling is unlikely do do anything. Resets can sometimes help.

How big is the project? Does it have many fragments? Are some of these fragments on HDD/ntrwork or everything is on SSD?
I'd try the following: start VP with no projects, disable HW decoding and then exit VP and then try to open VP & the project.
