Missing mia-materials. Any idea?

Hello,
i´m facing a problem with the mental ray plugin and already asked for help in different forums.
Maybe you can help?!

I´ve installed mental ray (and yeah, it´s "loaded") but there are no presets for mia_materials. Simply missing.

Attribute Editor -> Presets -> mia_material_x# Should be the right tab. When i click on "Presets*" it only offers "Save mia_..." and "Edit Presets".
Searched online for hours without any success. Already reinstalled Maya and Mental Ray plugin.

My involved folders:

- C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2016
- C:\Program Files\Autodesk\mentalrayForMaya2016
- C:\Users\Username\Documents\maya

All material scripts are in the "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\mentalrayForMaya2016\presets\attrPr esets\mia_material_x" folder.

Example SS: https://snag.gy/IFPEN.jpg

How can i import them? | Do i need to load another plugin? | Are there differnt versions of mental ray?

Any idea what may cause the problem?

Thanks for reading!
