[Runtime Bug]: Wizard Error Occurred — RTX Remix Toolkit fails to set up project (permission issue on Windows 11)
Describe the bug
Hi, I encountered a problem while setting up a new project in RTX Remix Toolkit on my new laptop (Windows 11). The wizard throws the following error:
Wizard Error Occurred An error occurred while setting up the project.
An unknown error occurred: Error in 'pxrInternal_v0_22__pxrReserved__::UsdStage::'
Here’s a screenshot:
I found the root cause and a workaround:
The Nvidia App installs RTX Remix Toolkit into: C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\RTX Remix
Windows 11 doesn’t seem to grant full permissions to this folder, even with admin privileges.
I tried changing the install directory during installation, but it still forced Remix into the default location.
Workaround: Manually drag the RTX Remix folder to another drive (I used D:).
Launch the toolkit with administrator privileges from the new location.
After that, the project setup worked fine.
Please check this behavior with the Nvidia App team—looks like both the forced install location and permission handling could use some tweaks.
Thanks! Entity
