I went over to the Solid Angle website and downloaded the update (MAXtoA-1.0.812.2018). She told me about an Arnold update that was available for Max 2018. Apparently those crash reports that go to Autodesk are reviewed by somebody up at headquarters. I then received an email from Marianne (3ds Max Render QA Analyst) at Autodesk. The work machine install went without hitch and Max 2018 started up without any issue yesterday. I'm installing on my home machine and work machine.

I hope this answered your question or resolved the issue, if so please click Kudos or the "thumbs-up!" Did my response help resolve the issue? Please "Accept As Solution" to help others in the community. Launch 3ds Max 2017 - you will need to reactivate it.

_STANDALONE (or _NETWORK if the product uses a network license). Using Notepad (or preferred text editor) create a new text file called LGS.data.This is true even if you installed from a suite. For example, if you get the error with 3ds Max 2017 you need to use product key 128I1. Note: The must match the product that is giving the error. Using Windows Explorer, browse to the following folder:Ĭ:\ProgramData\Autodesk\CLM\LGS\_2017.0.0.F.Go to C:\ProgramData\FLEXnet and delete all files that start with adskflex.Remove all files under C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\ADUT.Remove all files under C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\ADUT.STEP 1 Forcing reactivation of the product I would follow that steps below to see if this corrects the issue.
