Fed up of the constant Pop-Up “Student Version File”! Well here is a quick way to get rid of it all together.

  1. Save your Maya file as Maya Ascii file (.ma)
  2. Open the file with a text editor (I prefer Notepad ++). 
  3. Search and delete fileInfo “license” “student”;
  4. Save the file and open it!
