Unicode Error

Error 4

# Error: (unicode error) 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position 2-3: truncated \UXXXXXXXX escape

Cause: This usually happens because of a conflicting vaccine.py script inside your Maya user scripts folder.


Solution:

  1. Close Maya completely.

  2. Navigate to your scripts folder:

    Documents\maya\2023\scripts\
  3. Check if a file named vaccine.py exists.

  4. If it does, rename it to:

    userSetup.py
  5. Restart Maya and try launching Groomer’s Tool again.


If the error still persists: Please contact support at nobraintools@gmail.com with details about your Maya version and operating system.
