After I open Maya, and go to File > Open/Save/import/Project/etc., Maya brings up said window but the box is filled with white and Maya freezes up. I've tried deleting the prefs folder and running a repair install but neither had any effect. Do I need to completely uninstall Maya?
Man, this is years later. have both the 2014 and 2018 and up until today never had an issue and just started freezing maya when I opened the import or save dialog. Thx Dave, very much appreciate the answer and thanks to Polycount for keeping this up here.
See if this works. Go to Window > Settings/Preferences > Preferences > When the preferences window opens then on the left scroll down to Files/Projects Scroll down to File Dialog Choose dialog style as "OS native" Save Next time choosing the options from the File menu it should work smoothly
Tried to reply to this earlier but had to make a post in other thread before activating this...so here goes again... Go to Window > Settings/Preferences > Preferences When Preferences window pops up scroll down on left side to Files/Projects On Files/Projects scroll down to File Dialog Tick OS native Save and close. Next…
