3ds Max crashes as soon as I set Corona as active renderer

Issue:

3ds Max crashes to desktop as soon as Corona is selected as the active renderer in the 3ds Max Render Setup > Common window.

Solution:

This issue is very rare, and unfortunately, the exact cause remains unclear. However, the following solutions have been reported to resolve the problem:

  • Installing all available Windows Updates (note that you may need to install updates, restart your PC, check for updates again, and repeat until no new updates are available)
  • Re-installing Windows completely (it is recommended to use Windows 10 with all updates)
