Thanks for all your help, I've tried everything you mentioned, even trying a different version of the program, the problem still persists. I can't even export a small clip of the project to show you. Trying to upload a portable version to google drive takes 24 hours (50GB + of data, and slow internet)
It's just shitty I wasted 80$ on the full version of this project, countless hours on this project that is now gone to waste.
