MAXtoA for 2022 - doesn't let me update

Hi everyone,


I have this weird issue, where I need to update the Arnold version.

maxtoa.jpg

I download the file and when I am installing it, I get this error:

And if I go to my Control Panel, there is no MAXtoA 2022 there.


I already went to C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins and there is no folder there.


Anything that I am missing

I wonder if it's the 2023 entries. I would rename these two keys (eg put "xxxx" in front of the existing name) and test the install again.

Cool! But now you might have an issue with maxtoa for that other version of Max when you want to install an update
