UI image error + issue with scripts

It seems that I violated the 3D max files and I received a warning that the files were damaged and the system gave me a choice, restore the system to the initial settings or leave it like that, I made a mistake and clicked option 2, how can I solve this problem now? (I tried re-downloading, but it didn’t help).2. When I put scripts into a file they don't work, did I do something wrong?

A couple of things will make your chances of getting good help more successful. 

 

1. Explain what each screenshot is trying to show. For instance, I have no idea what you are trying to show in the first one, and trying to figure out what you "might" be trying to show in the 2nd and 3rd is iffy. Most people won't take the time to try to read your mind. So explanations help. 

2. What scripts are you trying to use? Some scripts cause problems in Max depending on the version of Max and the version of the script. And some are just buggy no matter what. 

3. Once you get going again, adopt a good backup system for your ENU folder. If you don't know what that is, read the Max Documentation or search here. Once you have a good one running, save it somewhere so if things go sideways you can get back to a "known good" ENU. I back mine up twice a week, that way, if I need to restore one, I'll only lose a couple of days of customization if I did any at all.

Then I will write everything down in detail. The first screenshot indicates that I have lost most of the icons, the other 2 screenshots show that the scripts do not appear in the customization panel. These are regular SoulBurn scripts, I've worked with them before and everything was fine.

The problem is not about copying anymore, but about how do I get these icons or ENU, or whatever this is back. When the system asked me if I wanted to reboot them, I had to do it.

I managed to fix the ENU, but the issue with the scripts is still open

Soulburn scripts are dead and gone. RIP. Neil Blevins who developed and shared them for so many years said a couple of years ago that he was stopping and that for future versions of Max it would be unlikely that they would function. I'll try to find that  link.

 

Here it is....
