    The software requires a license file to function, please login to your Altair Store account to download the license file.

     

    You should find the license file attached to the email from the system after you request your license file http://studentedition.altair.com/ 

     

    After downloading the license file, rename it to altair_lic.dat and place the same in the <installation directory>/security folder

     

    If you have already done the above and still face the error, let us know and we will troubleshoot accordingly.
