c4dpy.exe asking for credentials?

[bentraje]

Hi,

I have opened Cinema4D R21 with the proper log-in credentials.
When I open c4dpy.exe through commandline, it is asking me again for credentials.

Is this normal?

I guess it is necessary for R21+ and up

Hi @bentraje as you already figured out in the documentation for R21+ this is necessary because each version (c4dpy, CommandLine, TRS, TRC) now have their own preference folder and doesn't share anymore the one from c4d.

Cheers,
Maxime.
