VEGAS Movie Studio 17

is not working

I did not buy this software from Amazon, but like many other reviewers have mentioned, NOT all activation S/N are included . Soundforge is included with the download but no activation is provided.

VEGAS Movie Studio, I had version 12. It wouldnt work on my new Windows 11 computer. This box version 17 was selling at a discount, so I gave it a try. At first neither version was working unless the disable full screen optimizations box was checked on the windows shortcut. About a week after I installed this, AMD released a new video driver for the AMD Ryzen 5 5625U with Radeon Graphics. Now both versions (12 &17) work as expected. I think the reasons why this product is not rated higher, is because of hardware, driver compatibly. The box version came with key codes for Movie studio and DVD architect. About every three days a message pops up to upgrade to newer versions of different variations of Magix software. BE WARNED, not all offers are for this Vegas product, newer versions of movie studio are some other form of software from Magix. The last upgrade offer they sent was for Vegas Edit 19, for $49. That is a great deal, and it has the same user interface as VEGAS Movie Studio 17. I would have taken that deal, but Radeon Graphics do not meet the system requirements of Vegas Edit 19. Overall, I like the Vegas product line.

i bought this because i hate having to pay for monthly subscriptions and at first it was nice and simple to understand things but after several crashes, video files getting corrupted, fx not working and spending weeks tryna figure out the stupid audio editor, ive never had so much frustration with a video editor before and it pisses me off that i spent a $100 on this a year ago

I had the version 12 but got the download version and now it wont work anymore. I got 17 figuring I could at least use it. The problem is that the instruction files were blank and it does not work like the previous version. I cant get much of anything to work and the site disappears after you try to access customer service. A total waste of money.

Ive wasted more then 5 hours of my time to only have this program crash and my project not saved several times this afternoon. I payed $80 for this. I am here to tell you not to purchase this.
