Shame they don't asses your cognitive capability before allowing you on this forum.

@Sim-UK If you keep talking this way to me I will report you to the forum moderation. When you click on my avatar you will see that I have more reputation here than you will probably ever here receive.

To your problem, when you purchased directly from Vegas Creative Software instead at resellers, just to get a discount, than you would have seen that VP22 isn't sold anymore after Sept. 9.2025.

You should blame the resellers for still selling VP22.

 

Oh No really! Aren't you tough & important! I must watch my behaviour around my superiors.

You certainly do have a reputation: As you Once again speculate about me & my purchases etc..

I did buy direct from Vegas Creative Software 1 week prior to V23 coming out & people who buy from resellers for a discount are not lesser a human being; you pretentious Knob.

FYI: Vegas 22 on sale on STEAM is sold by .... MAGIX Software GmbH.
It is people like you, excusing Vegas from doing what is right & then attacking those who disagree with you, which causes these precise problems.

You're just another excuse to ditch Vegas all together and move to a professional company who actually have some respect for their customers..

Resellers should make it clear to buyers if they're selling discontinued versions of software that are out of manufacturer support. This buyer's situation would probably be different if Magix licensing for a vp23 upgrade also covered previous versions... a simple tweak to licensing server policies would present the wider possibilities of buying a supported version of Vegas in the 1st place.

Thanks for the updates everyone. I agree with others that it looks like Nvidia has no intention of supporting API calls that older versions of Vegas are using. I'd pay $10 to fund a patch so I can continue using Vegas 21 and be able to update my Nvidia drivers. I'm not even joking. It looks like 23 has its own set of issues and I've finally gotten to a point that 21 is working okay on my machine and don't want to jinx it.

I might upgrade from 21 to 24 whenever that comes out, but I have little interest in 23 unless it goes on a big sale. I'd consider 23 for like $50 if they give users of older versions a special coupon as an alternative to paying for a version 21 patch. The big problem I see is all of the 22 users that recently bought in through the humble bundle and like others mentioned that older versions exist on Steam.
