I was using Houdini/ Mantra this morning but something changed and I can't open Houdini any more. I tried running License Administrator and it gives me this message:
EnvControl: HOUDINI_USER_PREF_DIR missing __HVER__, ignored.
I tried deleting houdini.env but that didn't help. Any ideas welcome!
Houdini unable to start - HOUDINI_USER_PREF_DIR missing __HVER__

The issue is caused since houdini can't find variable “HOUDINI_USER_PREF_DIR”.
So we should setup the variable and value as path of houdini env.
in Window
1. open System Properties(window)
2. Advanced
3. Environment Variables
4. set “User variables for User”
1) new
2) variable : HOUDINI_USER_PREF_DIR
3) Value : path of Houdini Env (ex : C:\Users\User\Documents\houdini17.0)
Thanks
