 When opening max files you get CoCreateInstance () Failed error message.

 

From Start Menu do a search for CMD  

Do a Right click on cmd.exe and run as Administrator

 

Go to your 3ds max install folder: cd "C:\Program Files\Autodeskds Max 2012"

First Unregister :  regsvr32 /u MAXComponents.dll

While unregistering you may get an error message that the dll could not be unregistered, you can safely ignore this message.

Secondly Re-register: regsvr32 MAXComponents.dll

If registered sucessfully you will see this screen
