the window doesn't show up at all

Have you tried resetting to default layout? View > Window Layouts > Default Layout.

If that doesn't fix it, you may need to reset Vegas Pro to default settings.

Check also this possibility.

More times than not, this is due to the window opening mostly hidden, sometimes under the windows taskbar.

if i reset to default do i lose all of my current work

Resetting settings to default doesn't affect your projects, you won't lose any work, it only resets the VEGAS settings that you can change, one of which seems to be causing a problem for you.

Try hiding/moving the taskbar temporarily first to see if you find a part of the window to drag it to the screen.

How do i hide the taskbar

Thank you guys so much, such a stupid mistake. I was worried i wasted my money.

Right Click Start / Settings / Personalization / Taskbar
