Hello

Check in
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Autodesk\3dsMax\2015 - 64bit\ENU\temp
(%LOCALAPPDATA% is C:\Users\your username\AppData\)

Unfortunately V-Ray dutifully deletes the file after each render, so chances of finding it there are slim.

However, the very same question comes up every now and again; I’m thinking if we should keep the files around for a few days maybe, just in case.

or maybe until the next render is started at least?

anyway i found a copy of the file so all good in the end.
