In this video, I show you a real case where Vegas Pro 23 crashes immediately on startup — before the program even opens. The cause? A Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable conflict.
If you’re dealing with Vegas Pro startup crashes, VC runtime errors, or “Vegas stopped working” messages, this fix may save you hours of frustration.
First, install all MS VC Redistributables from here
Then separately install Microsoft Visual C++ v14 from here
Now Vegas should run just fine.
