Hello,I have a few different path errors on 3 machines that I can't figure out.
Windows 10 Pro
2017 3ds Max
2017 Backburner
To explain the situation, I have 4 dedicated rendering machines. I set up one machine all the way and then made a system image. I then restored this system image to my other 3 machines for a base to start from. Then I changed all of the PC names, for a while all the user names were the same (Farm-01-User). These machines all worked but were having issues rendering at the same time (Using Backburner), I figured this to be a user name error because they were all the same. I created a new user for every machine, copied the Farm-01-User 3ds Max paths to Farm-02-User etc. then deleted the original user from the computer. On first star of Max with the new user it gave ma all of the expected path errors trying to find files that were deleted from the original user. I updated the broken paths under "configure user paths" and "configure system paths". Also a mental ray missing dll error comes up on start now and an error for a missing file pathed to a user folder that doesn't exist. I figured that some of these issues would go away if I did a fresh install onto the user that I want the files to access but Max still tries to access files on a user that was deleted. I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice. I used the uninstall utility once and the other time I uninstalled everything autodesk one by one from the control panel.
Below are screenshots of the errors I'm getting and yes they are consistent across 3 machines.
