Hi @Anonymous and welcome to the community!
Does your Maya work fine when opening and creating new scenes?
What version of Maya are you running and is it up to date?
Also, what GPU are you running and are the drivers up to date?
Steps to update your drivers can be found here!
Let me know if anything changes!
All the best,

it does work on its own but when i try to open maya files from another computer it just stops, and i'm using 2018 maya the latest one and my OS is windows 10.
Hi @Anonymous
When you get a chance, can you please zip and attach the scene file here or via dropbox/google drive or another file sharing program so I can take a look at it?
Also, have you had a chance to check your GPU drivers to make sure they are up to date?

Hi @Anonymous
Thanks for attaching the file!
It took a little while to load but I was able to open the file on my machine:
I also went ahead and combined everything and deleted the history so it should be cleaned up a bit. Please download the file and see if it can open on your machine!
All the best,

Hi Sean,
I saw this post and was wondering if you could try opening my files as well? I have tried opening them on multiple computers to delete the history myself but have not been able to successfully. I used to be able to open them on the same computer just fine. Any help is much appreciated. I understand they are big files. I will send you the attachments if you are willing to help.
Hi @Anonymous
Sure thing!
When you get a chance, can you please zip and attach the scene file here or via dropbox/google drive or another file sharing program so I can take a look at it? If the file is confidential or under NDA please send it to me in a private message instead of posting it here.
All the best,
