3ds max deadline worker doesn't work

Hello, trying to launch deadline worker on my local workstation to help render overnight stuff.
It worked before, but we didn’t need to use our workstations for rendering in a while so I have no idea when problems started.
Using 3ds max 2023 and corona 11.

Now it get stuck on starting up stage and eventually errors out.

I think it’s something to do with the scene file or maybe the Max installation. There’s 12,488 DB element errors in the log, so that can’t be helping things.

Try the 3ds Max troubleshooting guide to see if it’s still unable to render.

Scene renders fine on other render nodes, so yeah it will be something that’s a miss with my max installation. I was kind of expecting that, but just wanted to check if I missed something obvious.

Time to nuke whole windows installation for a good measure a guess, cause whole system starting to become kind of flaky.
Sorry and thanks for the bother!
