Each and every plugin you download will have an installation wizard included. Once you extract the downloaded plugin folder, open the wizard to install the plugin. There is usually a step which requires you to select the Video Editing Software of which you are intending to install the plugin on. On this step, simply select Sony Vegas Pro if you are using Vegas.
If you are facing an error message when importing MOV files into Vegas, there are two programs you could use to fix this.
The Quicktime plugin will allow Sony Vegas to read .MOV files. To enable this, first you'll need to download Quicktime. Once downloaded, open up Sony Vegas and go to options > preferences. Then, select the 'enable quicktime plugin' found under the depreciated features tab. Vegas Pro will now be able to read MOV files after being restarted.
The second option is Handbrake. Handbrake is the free software extension that allows you to transcode MOV files into MP4 in order to open them up in Sony Vegas Pro.
