| "coCreateInstance() failed" error when skin modifier applied
|
|
|
I have a mesh that I applied a skin modifier onto it.
coCreateInstance() failed
Please check your registry entries
CLSID{F088EA74-2E87-11D3-BIF3-00C0F03C37D3} and make sure you are logged in as an administrator.
I am logged in as an administrator.
3DS Max 2011 Design 32 bit.

Try running it logged in as the Administrator. Not all admins are equal…
Max 4.2 through 2013.
XP-64 (SP2)
NVidia 9800GTX-512 (Driver 266.58).
Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz, 8Gb Ram, DX9.0c.

Same problem here.
Max 2011
win xp pro sp3 32 bit.
Created an admin password, ran max as admin, applied skin modifier to mesh for use with biped. Error dialogues and the cocreatinstance () error. Clicked yes. Can apply modifier but it refuses to work.
There are no other admin options as far as I know and I have 2011 on a 64bit at home where everything runs just fine (better than fine actually). Researching this shows most folks are successful with firing up max and applying the modifier as admin once fixes the problem. Not my problem though. I think this is a 32 bit thing and as the report rate is low I am guessing my case is a bit unique.
Any help appreciated.

I ran into the same problem. Did anyone ever figure out a solution to this?
|
|
|

I also ran into the same problem, and I was wondering if anyone could help. I’m sort of stuck because I’m logged in as the adminstrator, but I still get this message.

I have suddenly run into the same problem. Max 2011. My skin was working a couple of weeks ago, and now when i appy the skin modifier to a new model, a simple model, it bugs out a little bit and gives me the CoCreateInstance() failed message. Doesn’t really work once i hit ok though. Not sure what is up, but i need to have my skin working. I am the administrator, and logged in as so....Please any information anyone would have to this would be great.

Hello to all and sorry for my English.
Same thing was on my machine winxp32+3dsmax2011 when i want to create CAT object.
To fix problem i type «regsvr32.exe “C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max Design 2011\MAXComponents.dll"» in command line (win->run...).
Restart 3dsmax.
Hope it would be useful.

Start (button) > Run
Or open a Command Prompt (probably on Start > Programs > Accessories)
In either case, enter the command as described above then press Enter.

Hello,
I was having the exact same problem.
The solution went from the creation of an account to enter in windows.
Previously, I was using the by default administrator account the use windows.
I created my own account, restarted the computer to reboot windows and the message didn’t appear again.
Many thanks to your messages, which putted me on the way.
Have a nice day :-)
Pierre.

With Max off
1. Windows Button+R to open Run window
2. type> regsvr32.exe
3. open an explorer window and navigate to your installed directory (ie. C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max2011)
4. Drag MaxComponents.dll into the run window after your text “regsvr32.exe” and then hit enter.
5. Start Max
