See, if disabling "Adaptive light solver" under "Performance settings" helps.

Just a note:
 Using standard C4D workflow "Add Hair" and its "Hair Mat" works just fine (w/ latest v13 daily).

Doesn't "Project Asset Inspector" do it for you?

IIRC
In simple terms: Specularity is reflectiveness in old-school 'metallic' approach (mirror, metal, glass...).
more on: http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Specular_color_map
& https://docs.otoy.com/cinema4d/SpecularMaterial.html

TL;DR
Make it metal, use in Diffuse.

Yeah, on windows it starts w/ OS and is running in the back. Disabling it, disables access.

IMHO
It's just the 'architectural' perspective which feels unnatural for such 'photography' case. Also, motion blur, lens and sensor anomalies would help giving it the 'naturalistic' feel, tho I suspect your scene is static and you don't do photography for real. So it's fairly good work.

Take a note:
Always show your current W.I.P along with visual references of your intentional goal and, if possible provide your "look-dev" scene.
Otherwise we're all wasting time with guessing... and merely expressing personal opinions.

Also, check "Cosmos" library and other resources... e.g. https://www.corona-materials.de/en/material-library/-

Working fine from here...
Re-install, re-start, check, if 'service' is running for 'real' via "Task Manager"... (have no clue how you do it on a mac)
