What is the fastest operating system to run Vegas Pro 19. Will it run on Windows 10 Lite or Windows 11 Lite? or "Tiny 11 22H2?, or Windows 11 Super Lite ISO Phoenix Edition
My system is getting older and I am considering creating a dual boot with some sort of faster OS on the second boot just for working on 4k or higher res. videos? It will contain the bare minimums to do video editing. I have an Intel Core i7-9700 with 4700GHZ turbo boost 12mb cache, and 32 gb of ddr ram. GPU is NVidia GeForce GTX 1660-Ti with 6 gb of ram.
I was just wanting to test if the situation was the same for NLE's as for gamers. After doing a large amount of research I decide to do a dual boot with the second boot being Windows 11 X-Lite Rapture edition. Got all my drivers installed then installed Vegas Pro 19. When it came to register MAGIX Service Center Device Management stated: You can deactivate an unused device once a month. Your new device (This is not a new device) can then be activated for your product.
Both listings in Magix Service Center have the exact Desktop name. Both Detailed device Informations are exactly the same. Upon closing this window a message popped up stating: You have reached the maximum allowed number of simutaneously usable devices for this program (Which is ONE desktop). You can easily activate the software for this device through the Magix Service Center. My goal was to run back to back test on the same projects to determine if the modded Windows 11 X-Lite Rapture Edition was faster as every gamer claims it to be. (ps I NEVER game).
Update: After a lot of research I installed Windows 11 X-Lite Homecoming Edition from PhoenixOS. I ran Hitman Pro and discovered 2 Malwares and 1 possible malitious file. I then ran MalwareBytes and found other possible warning files. Removed them all then installed Vegas Pro 19 and all my Video and Audio Fx apps. I made the settings exactly the same and ran the exact project on both Operating Systems. I purposely used a project that was just starting to lag when played back on the timeline. I saw maybe only a 5% improvement on the X-lite Homing coming Edition, BUT the audio would skip on every project I tried. I would Highly NOT recommend using one of these Lite OS's. Cyber CPU Tech and others have YouTube channels on how to tweak the settings of your existing Windows 10 and 11, but you still won't see much improvement. Vegas Pro 20 does not seem to run any slower then 19 on my MicroSoft Windows 11 home edition.
