3DMAX can t save the file anymore

Reasons why 3dmax can't save files and solutions:

Causes: Opened in the wrong format.

SolutionIn addition, it should be noted that when the 3dmax file cannot be saved due to insufficient space on the hard disk, or the permission of the default backup file saving path cannot be obtained, a pop-up window will appear "Unable to create a backup file", so be sure to ensure that the space is sufficient when saving.

3DMAX should be used with caution

The hard drive where the 3dmax scene model file is located, or the autobackup folder itself does not have sufficient read and write permissions, will cause the 3dmax rendering model file to fail.

When the network connection is wrong or when playing with a cloud storage drive, the 3dmax model scene file will be in the "cached" state. At this time, it cannot be saved, simply put, it is closed before it is cached.

3dmax also fails to save the model scene file due to a mistake, and when you plan to save the 3dmax model file on the cloud storage drive, the cloud storage drive has preemptively synchronized the automatic backup file of the rendering scene before saving.

The following is an example.

Case 1: The save format is incorrect.

1.Open any scene and click File - Save As.

2.When you select a type, you accidentally save it as. ch format.

Case 2: An error is made.

1.Open any scene and click File - Export.

2.The type is selected as all formats, and the file name is acrylic. max (acrylic is a custom name, can be changed to something else), thinking that this can be saved as. max format.

3.Actually, no, an error pops up on the interface.

I've also encountered this problem, and the final solution is to open this file with a higher version of max (e.g. max9 and 2009), save it in fbx or obj format (obj is recommended), and you can open it with max8.

It should be your file is corrupted, you try to create a new file yourself, it should be saved!
