Is the export Format field empty?  If so, click the caret and choose a format.  image.png

Test this release to see if it has the same issue.   Please report back.

For licensed users upgrades are free for up to six months from purchase date.  After that, VP will continue to fully function but a fee will be required in order to register the newest.  Retain your old install file and registration info.

To track this down please share the project.  The process is easy, quick and can be done privately.  Just follow these steps...

  •     Back up --- With your project on the timeline, click on MENU at the top-left.  Click FILE|BACK UP PROJECT FILES TO FOLDER.  Choose a folder and SELECT FOLDER.
  •     Upload ---  Use a free server - Google Drive, MS OneDrive, etc.* - to upload the saved, numbered FOLDER.    Do NOT upload the individual VPJ or export file. 
  •     Get link --- Get a public link.  If using Google Drive click GET SHAREABLE LINK. If necessary change "restricted" to "anyone with the link can view" 
  •     Share ---     Click COPY LINK | DONE.  Paste that link here, or click the folder at the top-right of this forum to message it privately to me.  It won't be shared.

          *    Before uploading, right-click the folder, click PROPERTIES.  Look at the File Size to confirm that it's not too big for the free space on the server.

Close Videopad.  Right-click on the launch file and RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR.  If still no joy perhaps there are corrupted files.

Close Videopad.  Then use this free tool to delete all traces of ONLY Videopad.

When it asks to scan the registry, let it do so.  Select all files and delete them. 

Then reinstall Videopad.

You might also try another PC, if one is available.

Did that help?
