Hello.

I'm getting this window message on every houdini launch.



This only happens with Houdini 20.5.332 and the latest 20.5.370.
I also have Houdini 20.5.278 installed, and it is not giving me the message.

I also tried to delete the houdini configuration folder but it keeps giving me that message.

I have another computer with Houdini 20.5.332, and there’s no message on Houdini startup. So I guess it’s something related to the installation on my main computer, but I have no idea what it could be...

Any possible solution to this?

Apart from how annoying it is that this message appears in every Houdini session, I have confirmed that when I launch a render through Deadline, it is unable to start Houdini and keeps throwing errors. To be sure, I tested changing the version of Houdini that Deadline uses to render to 20.5.278, which doesn't show the message at startup, and with this version, Deadline has no problem rendering. So, this is more problematic than it initially seemed.
