Apologies if I am missing something basic here, but I just bought QS2 yesterday and while so far almost everything is working as expected, I am having issues with the Color ID script for Maya.

Our apologies, this is due to installing Quixel SUITE in the non-default area.
In your Quixel SUITE 2.0 directory, and then in the colors directory you'll find a settings.ini file.
The line, QS2= needs to be changed to the correct directory (Quixel SUITE 2.0's directory, not the colors directory), so for example:
QS2=X:\\Path\\To\\Quixel SUITE 2.0
Also be sure to replace the windows single forward slash with a double back slash, after that - restart Quixel Colors!
We've plans for the next release to pull all of this from registry, along with a quick maya install, so users don't have to deal
with all of this code setup. Also be sure to check the FAQ as most of the Colors related issues can be found there. Apologies for the inconvenience!
Kind regards,
Scott.
Tack mycket!
