    Hi Warren,

     

    Can you check whether the Ethernet ID of your machine matches with the Ethernet ID used for license?

     

    If both Ethernet IDs are same, Use windows folder options > unhide known extensions, to make sure the file is named altair_lic.dat and not altair_lic.dat.dat,

     

    Also, have a look at below post:

    No, they don't match. So I copied my ethernet ID and paste it over the other one and it still doesn't work.

    Hi Warren,

     

    Copying and pasting Ethernet ID to license file doesn't help. 

    You need to apply for a new license using the correct Ethernet ID.
