Vegas launching Mocha Pro in Learning Edition - NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE

Hi,

Anyone having trouble launching BCC Mocha in Vegas 314?

I have a project which uses BCC Primatte Studio. I use an Outside mask and use the 'Launch Mocha' button to edit the masks. This has been working for years and now suddenly when I click the button, it says "Launching Mocha...." and after an extended wait, Vegas hangs and 'Mocha Pro 2023 - Learning Edition - NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE' is launched (with Vegas still stuck on 'Launching Mocha...' A dialog from Mocha opens stating that 'Projects edited in LE mode cannot be opened in the licensed version' To evaluate Mocha Pro please Request Trial'. Only course of action is to open Task Manager and kill Vegas.

I have the full Boris Continuum product and half an hour ago everything was working fine! Tried rebooting the PC - reinstalling Continuum and no help at all. It appears Vegas or Boris have screwed up my project!

I can load other projects and launch Mocha as usual.

I am using 'Continuum_2024_OFX_Hosts_17_0_3_Windows.exe' and Vegas 21 Build 314.

Deleting BCC Primatte Studio from the project, saving the project, re-opening the project and re-adding BCC Primatte Studio appears to be the workaround. Fortunately I saved my BCC Primatte Studio settings in a preset so was able to continue where I left off.

It appears there may be a defect that can cause plug-in data to be incorrectly stored in the Vegas project file.
