This page provides information on how to uninstall Corona for 3ds Max.
Overview
The installer automatically updates Corona to the newer version if it detects an older version. If you need to manually uninstall Corona, please make sure that 3ds Max or Corona components, such as the Corona Image Editor, are not being used.
Uninstalling Corona for 3ds Max
The uninstaller originally resides as an Uninstall Chaos Corona for 3ds Max shortcut in the following location:
<code><span class="line"><span>C:\Program Files\Chaos\Corona\Corona Renderer for 3ds Max\uninstall</span></span></code>
Command Line Parameters
Parameter | Description |
|---|
Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
-h or --help | Displays command line help. |
-n or --noGui | Runs the uninstallation in console mode with no user input (no confirmation prompt). In this mode, the uninstaller is not able to delete itself, so the file C:\Program Files\Corona\Corona Renderer for 3ds Max\Uninstaller\RemoveCoronaForMax.exe is left on disk after the uninstallation is finished. |
Leftover Files
After the uninstallation is complete, there may be some leftover files that you need to delete manually. Please check if the following folders are present and delete them:
- %programfiles%\Corona
- %programfiles%\Chaos\Corona
- %localappdata%\Autodesk\3dsMax\20xx - 64bit\ENU\en-US\plugcfg\corona
- %programfiles%\Autodesk\3ds Max 2024\Plugins\ (Delete only corona-related files from here, if present)
