Please Help! - Iray suddenly stopped working - Resolved

I dont' know why but in iray mode, suddenly everthying looks like it is in "clay" mode or "smooth shaded." mode. If I switch to filament, it is fine in that render engine. Also, if in iray mode I hit render, all I get is a blank canvass.
How it looks in iray mode:
Same character when I switch to filament
It first hapened when I was on DS version 4.14. I upgraded and now I still have the same issue.
When I first upload a character, I'm getting error messages such as this:
Any idea what may be causing this? The issue occurs for every character I have tried, even when I pull up previously rendered scene subsets.
Thanks

You've probably already done this, but check to make sure you have the latest Nvidia graphic drivers.
Not only had I not thought of doing that, but it fixed my issue. Thank you so very much! I still got the error message in the beginning but everything seems to be working. You're brilliant :)
Glad it worked. I've been there a few times myself.
I get the metadata error with the latest version of D|S, but it hasn't affected anything adversely as far as I know. Take a look at your log file to see what is causing the dupe formula error. At least, it should help you narrow down the product that is giving Studio fits
