I just installed Mudbox 2012 and updated to sp2. When I try to launch mudbow it gives me a "application file stopped working" message and then nothing happens. I did a google search and found a few post talking about deleting the mudbox folder in my documents folder so I tried that and it didn't work. I also found a post that suggested updating to the newest video drivers so I did that and it still did not work. Lastley I tried to uninstall mudbox and reinstall.
Any help would be great.

Assuming system meets the minimum requirements
please try to install and run the software in diagnostics mode as described here.

If you have standalone licensing you might need additional license service enabled.
if it fails, please try to login as a new windows user.
I tried all of the suggestions and they did not work. I am using Vista home premium 64 and not bussiness as the system requirments suggest. Will Mudbow not run on home premium?
We have not tested it on Vista Home (premium), you could try to run in xp compatible mode etc. to check.
may be someone from the community has tried this already.
I tried the XP compatible mode and that did not work either. Must just be a Vista Home issue. I upgraded to Windows 7 pro and it works just fine now.
Thanks for your help though!!!
Mine just stopped working today. I've been using it for months now without much issue. Occasionally it'd do the same thing and I'd go and delete the brushes.sav file in the Mudbox settings folder and it would be fine. I tried everything today to no avail - deleted the whole settings folder, tried reinstalling, applied SP3, updated to latest nvidia drivers, nothing seems to work.
Oh, Mudbox 2011 seems to work fine but my files are 2012, and they aren't backwards compatible. Using 64-bit mudbox.
