Vegas Pro 22 Crashes When Checking Driver Update

Nizar-AbuZayyad wrote on 1/13/2025, 6:28 AM

I’m encountering an issue with Vegas Pro 22 (Build 194). As soon as I click on the "Check Driver Update" option, it crashes and gives me the "Vegas Pro has stopped working" error.

Here’s what I’ve done so far:

Updated my GPU drivers (RTX 3080, latest version from NVIDIA).

Reset Vegas Pro preferences (Ctrl + Shift during startup).

Verified that my system has sufficient resources (64GB RAM, Intel i9-12900F, Windows 11 Pro).

Despite the latest drivers being installed, Vegas Pro crashes when I check for driver updates. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any ideas on how to fix it?
 

The crash report shows these logs being loaded:

gpu_video_grovel_x64.log

svfx_video_grovel_x64.log

ofx_video_grovel_x64.log

vegas_script_x64.log

It's been like this for a few weeks, just don't use it for now.

We are likely to remove this utility. It has been far too much work to upkeep as APIs continue to change underneath us.

It's currently working OK for me (V22) but to be honest I don't really use it to keep my drivers updated. The new Nvidia app does the job. Also I have been using the game driver for some time now and have not seen any issues with V22 (or my other versions of Vegas) with the various game ready drivers. [If you are not a gamer then best to use the Studio Driver just in case].

Danny, no one can help you unless you provide some useful information about your PC, media being or likely to be used, any third party software that maybe installed to work with Vegas.

Driver update was removed from VEGAS. Your crash on startup isn't related, please create your own post with details.

Vegas crash upon startup
I'm using Vegas Pro 22 version 250

By the way, it was working and then stopped
I use Studio One Pro and mainly do audio projects with tons of plugins and virtual instruments
I also have Vegas Movie Studio that works fine
I've reinstalled several times...just get an error window

Yes. Driver update is now gone from vp22 b250. But I now get crashes if I select driver update in Vegas 21 or earlier versions. But it hasn't been finding any updates for some.
