Video won't play after reset

Reset Vegas Pro 17 to default. Now every video created in this version no longer play. All media loads correctly and no third party VSTs are in use. Have uninstalled and re-installed several times, but results stay the same. Everything was working fine until I upgraded to Pro 23. That literally started a cascade of issues with PC functions and created  strange USB behavior. Have uninstalled Pro 23 and have no plans to try again any time soon. (wasted money, time)
System is Win 10, 64 bit, Ryzen 7, 32gb memory.

Update: Magix customer service no longer supports version 17.

And creating a new video has the same result, will not play.

What video are you rendering that will not play? How are you rendering it? Can you do a media info on the file and post it here. https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo/Download - it is free. V23 can be installed along side other Vegas versions with no bad effects. Also what is the initial media you are using, again post the mediainfo. without this there is nothing to go on to help you.
