  • Cannot Kill 3dsmax.exe process (need to do this to install latest version of NEXT)

    I've updated my main machine with the latest version of NEXT, no problem, but my slave machine fails with an error as it seems it has 3dsmax.exe running in the background as a process.

    Each time I try killing it in Task Manager, it almost immediately reappears.

    Any ideas ?

    I think you're running the dr spawner. Look for a process called vrayspawner[maxversion].exe
    It could be also running as a service but I don't know how its called then. Probably same but in the services tab.
    German guy, sorry for my English.
