After Jan. 1st 3dsmax won't open

3dsmaxV15 will not open upon boot up as a critical error occurs stating “free version of Corona cannot be used after 31.12.2014. Aborting initialization”.
W.t.f.? I go to Add/Remove Programs and there is nothing under Corona nor Polymax or whatever the company name is.
Ok, I can reinstall 3dsmax and hassle with new authentication codes, etc but really!!! Guess I could install the new 7.1 build or whatever the number is such that it hopefully overides this error message. However, is all of this really necessary? WHY Corona?
B.t.w…I no longer wish to use the program.
thx in advance for any assistance.

As side note you can try V7.2 free until end of february if you like.

Thx so much Boris…good stuff.

My max is jacked up

You used an old build that had an unintended crash in it after the trial period is over. We released a fix about 2 months ago, it seems it unfortunately did not get through to you. Just use the uninstaller, or install 1.0 (Renderer for architectural visualization - Corona | Chaos) and you will be fine. We are sorry for the inconvenience
