Hello Phenphen,

error 2 is a steam client error.

You find the solution here:

In order to solve error 2 uninstal Vegas and perform the following steps:

1. Run regedit
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > Sony Creative
Software.
3. Delete Vegas Pro - Steam Powered from the folder C:\Program
Files(x86)\Steam\SteamApps/common
4. Apply now the steps indicated from Steam in order to avoid error 2:
5. Find your Steam install directory in windows explorer.
6. Right click, "Properties".
7. Select the "Security" tab.
8. Check for the presence of "Users" in the "Group or user names" box.
If it's not present, then select "Edit", find "Users" in the next window and select "Add".
9. Type 'User'.
10. Check name - (There should be no window popup just YOURNAME-PC/USER or
something like that).
11. Select "Ok".
12. Go back to the previous window and select the entry you created.
13. Give it full permission in all boxes (The last one is grayed out by default).
14. OK/Apply until a new window pops up informing you that the permissions for the Steam
folder are being written/updated. This will take a while.

cheers

I had error code 2 too after the update. I removed Vegas Pro through Steam and removed
it's left over folders and in the registry. After that i reinstalled it through Steam and i worked fine without error.
Except me, I've uninstalled the app, reinstalled it but this time once it reaches up to 100% and now said "Download Paused". I think this latest update broke the software.

This began happening to me suddenly. I've followed the steps suggested and nothing changes. It claims it cannot locate a file.

I don't understand how 6 months later Steam is still experiencing this bug. Any new ideas on how to fix this?

Dear Phaylen,

1. Navigate to your steam game files: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common
2. Delete the Vegas Pro 14.0 folder
3. Go to Control panel and uninstall both Vegas Pro 14 and Vegas Pro - Steam Powered
4. Go to your steam software library and right click Vegas Pro 14, then click uninstall
5. Reinstall Vegas Pro 14
6. Now, after it is finished downloading, COPY AND PASTE THIS INTO THE BAR AT THE TOP TOP OF THE FILE EXPLORER: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Vegas Pro 14.0 AND RUN vegas140_x64.exe

Basically what your doing is manually installing the program instead of letting steam do it for you, because that's apparently what was causing the bug.

7. Go to C:\Program Files\VEGAS\VEGAS Pro 14.0 highlight every single file and folder, right click, and click copy
8. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Vegas Pro 14.0\Vegas Pro 14.0\ and paste them all into that folder
9. Go to steam and launch it from steam
10. Enjoy your fixed software!

Kind regards
The VEGAS team

What I did to Fix it was
1. Run Regedit
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > Sony Creative
Software.
3. Delete everything called Vegas/Sony
4. Right-click on the Steam program select properties.
5. Validate.

I have tried all of these solutions, and none of them have worked for me. I would like more specific information about what's happening.

I think we might consider how this problem seems to be cropping up for people occasionally over the course of 2 years now. I need this program to work; having it suddenly stop working one day when I need to edit videos for my department and make YouTube videos is an unpleasant shock.

This topic has come up many , many times . yes , i eventually have gotten
plenty of those errors too , but only after re-installing windows , while Steam
is still present on a different drive\partition .

In the above scenario , Steam itself , needs to be re-installed .
after Steam is fully installed and running , i do the below Steps to get Magix
Steam software functioning again , to include DVD Architect , and any\ALL
Magix Steam edition software :

These 4 steps have Always worked for me .

1. un-install Vegas from Steam Client menu .
.....next ,
2. inspect windows Control Panel for any Vegas , Vegas Pro , Sony , Magix
......Vegas related entries and have Control Panel un-install them .
3. Step 1 and 2 show two places where Vegas needs to be un-installed , in that order.
4. Now go into Steam\SteamApps\Common folder and manually delete Vegas Pro 14 folder .

The above is all i ever do .

Now have Steam re-download and install , it has always worked for me .
i Never touch the registry .
