I've been trying my hardest but at this point i can't help but call out to the forums for help
Maya has been acting weird ever since i redownloaded it on my PC, generally the Output window would pop up but then close itself quickly after a second or two
The output window would show this message before closing in no time soon after
"Maya: Autodesk Maya 2018Licensing ErrorA Licensing error occurred that Autodesk systems were not able to handle for you. Please contact Autodesk Customer Support for help in resolving this error.checkoutLicense:failure to authorize license...
(it could keep going but the window isn't big enough to show the whole thing)
tried uninstalling and reinstalling a few times but that hasn't worked either, also did uninstalling and installing using the Microsoft troubleshoot but that hasn't worked either, been stuck in a spot and don't know what to do to have Maya working again
(something i feel like should be noted, during installation, Maya does say an error about Arnold as well)
"couldn't register Arnold renderer in Maya PIT file (error while parsing pit file) please contact support@solidangle.com
edit: this is student version that i'm using for class
