alexandrapopova Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Hey guys, I'm sure you're fed up with threads like this, but apparently I'm a complete computer imbecile... The problem is the same as always "Error parsing Xaml file: Root element is missing" I read hundreds of threads in different forums and none of them seemed to work for me... OK, First I made all the hidden files visible, THEN I located the enu folder in App data/Autodesk/3ds max , but it contained only the file ProdDep_UserDep.mc3 I'm getting a little confused here, because I read that the enu folder is located in the UI folder. But my UI folder is in a different place: Program files/Autodesk/3ds max I suggest this is the folder I should be looking for because it contained default ui schemes and xaml files. But I still couldn't find the Maxmanaged.xaml file Nevertheless I deleted all the files (copied them to another location), but it got even worse... everything was gone and max turned white... I reinstalled it, but nothing happened. Am I blind? Please help me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt McDonald Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I think you need to provide more information about what you are trying to do. Your post makes the assumption that we all know what this "xaml" error is but obviously we don't. If you give us more info maybe we can get to the bottom of it.

Scott Schroeder Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 When do you get this error? I'm assuming you are talking about the error on startup? Have you seen this thread? https://area.autodesk.com/blogs/maxstation/l1_startup_error_error_parsing_xaml_file_root_element_is_missing What version of max are you using?

Ismael Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Google for "Maxmanaged.xaml file" http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-Max-3ds-Max-Design-General/error-parsing-xaml-file-root-element-missing/td-p/4147340 Personally I never heard of this problem but from the link above or the other Google hits, maybe you find a solution.

alexandrapopova Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 Ismael Orozco! Big up, man! I just can't believe I wasted so much time on this, but finally it's solved! The problem was the directory I was searching in... Apparently there are max files all over the place Everything is just as it's described in the thread, you just gotta keep searchin' Thanks guys, you can lock it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
