Vray 6 fails to initialize

[ashkanmoezzi]

I can't get Vray 6 to work properly on a fresh install of 3ds max 2022. It shows the following error.

An error occurred during initialization.
"VRAY_FOR_3DSMAX2022_MAIN". Please re-install
It is recommended that you exit the application and reinstall V-Ray now

No matter how many times I reinstall (with admin access) it still throws the same error. I then tried to test a scene and it doesn't render anything or crashes.
System specs: Win 11 Pro, i9 9900K, RTX 3090Ti, 64 GB DDR4, 3Ds Max 2022.3.3, VRay 60004

Thanks

Is max installed inn the default location, maybe the path is incorrect, or the 2022 is not being selected, do a custom install and choose the folder you want it to go to, you have nothing to loose.

It is, as I posted in another thread, I'll leave my reply here so if s.o. runs into the same issue this might help them "fix" it.

"I resolved the issue by running Max in admin mode, so it works and does not crash. I think for now I'll just play it safe because VRay doesn't run or crashes without admin privilege. Weird, but at least it works now."
