Windows 11 Security keeps blocking Vray DLLs

Not sure if this is due to a Windows 11 update or because i installed the latest Vray version recently, but now when I try to open my material library in 3DSMax 2026, I keep getting the error messages I attached here.

I already added the folders (C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins\VRay3dsMax2026) to be excluded from the Virus & Threat Protection but the issue persists.

Have you seen this happening before?

Thanks!

Add an exception for it? There used to be some issues with anti-virus software doing this kind of stuff, but after contacting various producers and telling them not to quarantine us, such issues haven’t appeared lately.

Hi there,

Thanks for the reply! I already added various exceptions both on Microsoft Defender and Malware Bytes, but the issue keeps popping up. I just thought of giving the Chaos team a heads up.

I will keep you posted if I’m able to resolve this.

Thanks!

Check this thread, by the way.

Gotcha!

Thanks, I will try that!
