Hit file menu button, Vegas shuts down. at DVinfo.net

Beginning today, when I hit the File menu to save a project (I use Save As, not the save symbol on the toobar) and Vegas immediately shuts down, and I lost all of my work. This doesn't happen every time.

Any thoughts? I suspect I have a virus.

Does the same thing happen if you Ctrl+S or Ctrl+A+S?

You might be able to recover some of your work (maybe all, depending) by opening the veg.bak file which should be in the same folder as your .veg file.

Assuming you have auto-save enabled, of course.

Thanks David, I'll try that.
