Hello!

I bought in the Steam store - VEGAS Movie Studio 14 Platinum Steam Edition. It worked fine on windows 7. Today I updated my operating system to windows 10. And now when I start the program, I get error code -59
an error occurred starting Movie Studio Platinum there is no license to use this software

I solved this problem like this

1.) Run regedit
2.) Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > Sony Creative Software.
3.) Delete Vegas Pro entries
4.) Delete Vegas Pro from the folder C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\SteamApps/common
5.) Download and install the software again.
