So I get VS7 Ultimate working yesterday and get one clip rendered into 4k video. Today I try a production. Importing 12 mp4 4k clips into VS7 and begin edit and add text and transitions and an
audio track. Get through the entire process and go to share. Set-up mp4 to render it at 3840x2160 and hit the start button.

Now I get this error "The file may be write protected"

Have not changed anything since yesterday when it was working again. Now this ? My video clips are write protected nor is my audio track used.

No wonder its been so long since I updated Video Studio. Never had so many problems with previous versions. Then again, new territory for me to, 4k. :shock:

Problem solved, Corel makes this difficult for new users who download VS7 not indicating that the latest download is already patched. And applying the patch is what creates this problem
on an already patched VS7.

Cure, was a complete un-install, clean out all saved installers and folders. Clean install, checking the about first before adding the addon pack.
