Uninstall & Reinstall VMSP17

Hello
Still working with MS17Platinum Windows10 but it seems way more unstable and I realize that could be from Windows10 no longer supported or the fact that my pc is fairly old but I thought a complete reinstall might be effective but I'm also worried I won't be able to retrieve the software due to Windows10 or a fairly old pc...
Any advice or suggestions appreciated
ThankYou

Do an image backup of your system first...

... and do anything you want with impunity.

Ran a compatibility test &it deemed MS17Platinum incompatible with my system
Worked just fine 3or4 months ago so yeah like I said I think because my PC is so old &still having to use Windows10 is causing the application to glitch more than ever
So still reluctantly leaning towards a total reinstall

@SantomPhith17 You don't say what your system specs are but if VMS17 was working well on your Win10 it should still be working okay.

Try a "Factory reset". Instructions here https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/faq-how-can-i-reset-vegas-pro-to-default-settings--104646/ It applies to VMS as well as Vegas Pro. A reset clears out a cache which reinstalling doesn't. If it doesn't fix your problem post details of your pc.
