Any other possible solutions?

Hi Alex -
Did this ever work as expected on your system or is this something that started to fail at some point?

Hi Wim,

thanks for the quick reply!
Never tried it before, since I just recently migrated my workstation and laptop to win11.
My old setup got its plugins downloaded from food4rhino years ago and i didnt touch it for a while.

Hi Alex -

Can you post a screenshot of the error message?
