If you could open source this project i would REALLY appreciate it besides there might be someone out there with good contributions..

Hello,

  1. Newtonsoft.Json is a popular open-source project that requires file reading and writing. I use it to create config files.

  2. VegasProData is my open-source project which contains most of the methods I use to work with VEGAS and Newtonsoft.Json.

  3. RatinFX.VP.dll also contains reused content - currently an "About" window used in VegasProFlow and BetterSearch.

  4. "authrootstl.cab" I haven't seen before nor do I use it. Seems like it's a Cabinet (CAB) file containing the Certificate Trust List (CTL) of non-Microsoft root certificates which is periodically downloaded by Windows.

As for the images, I'm rather clueless about what they mean, but I don't use registry keys or change Powershell policies around, so it feels like a false positive to me.

I'm currently not planning to open-source it, but you can look at BetterSearch if you'd like to see how I use these DLL-files or set up a VEGAS-related project.
