I just installed the new update and whenever i try to launch vegas pro, the loading screen pops up for a bit but then closes and nothing happens. Any ideas? I need to figure this out as vegas pro is what I use for work. All help is appreciated, thank you
I have to give you a guest video, but suddenly Vegas Pro 20 doesn't open. It's not just me, but all our partners don't open Vegas. Will you take responsibility if the customer requests a complaint? It's not just my problem. It doesn't open Hurry up and solve it

For me an easier way then going to the modem,
Bottom right Open Network & Internet settings, disable whichever one is working.
Same problem here. But idiot me, I just disconnected my ethernet connection for about 15 seconds, then re-connected it... then tried to open Vegas 20. It failed to open.
You need to leave your computer disconnected from the internet during the bootup of Vegas. That worked. Then once it was open, I re-connected the internet. Working like a champ now. Hopefully this (validation?) bug gets fixed soon though... this is certainly not a long-term "fix" I'm willing to live with.
Otherwise, the new update works much better than the previous version from what I could tell (during the hour I had it working). One of my major pet-peeves was how long it would take to get a project file to start working properly after I saved it... this was never a problem with versions 19 and before. And the more files I had in the Vegas 20 timeline, the more lag it took to start working properly again. This caused me to not save files very often anymore, so of course when it crashed, I'd lose more work. A terribly annoying bug that now seems to have been fixed. Thank you. Finally!
After initially installing the upgrade to 402, it opened but only the top half of the screen. The timeline would not load. After loading a previous session, it seemed ok.
Today after working I shut it down and went to open it again and nothing. No error message, get splash screen but when it says its done loading it just disappears. I did notice within task manager it says its error reporting before it goes, but I don't get any window.
I reinstalled Vegas Post.but it did not bring it back. I read in this thread that it was related to the internet. So I unplugged my Ethernet cable and Vegas Started, showed the right Startup screen, I closed the program, plugged in my Ethernet cable and it will NOT start.
It's not a windowd update issue - neither of my machines have had updates and it stopped working on both of them at the same time. What did just work was manually changing the date on my computer to 2nd May, at the suggestion that it had worked for someone else. It did work...I have no idea what error caused this, but give that a go. Very easy to do.
@George-Abihider Don't plug your cable back in until after Vegas is up and running.
Eric, Thank you, yes, I did that. Once Vegas was running I plugged in the Ethernet. BUT, I was curious to see if it would start with the Ethernet connected again. So, no. You MUST disconnect Ethernet to get Vegas running.
And, just as an FYI. In Windows 10, you can go to....
Settings
Network & Internet
Ethernet
Change Adapter Options
Click on the Ethernet device that connects you to the internet (Mine is called Ethernet2)
Click on Disable this network device.
Start Vegas Pro. Once it has started you can then "Click on Enable this network device."

This worked here, too. Set date to 2nd May, VEGAS runs. Quit it, set date to correct date, VEGAS doesn't run, stops at "Initialising Script" something or other.
The internet fixes didn't work for me.
Computers are weird, these days. Why, when everything was hunky dory on the 3rd May, should VEGAS stop on the 4th? The developers don't like Star Wars, maybe?

May 4th so it must be the Midi-chlorians messing with the internet force,
I'm experiencing the same thing, won't launch unless I disable the internet adapter on my Windows 10 PC. This is so anti-consumer, I paid top dollar for this crap not to happen.
Changing the year to 2022 worked for me without unplugging the internet. You have to do it while it starts up and then you can set it back when you're in the application. This workaround works, but it's an inconvenience as well, so hopefully Vegas Pro fixes this tomorrow.
