Question:

I have installed a Windows update. Now the license is no longer available.
When I start Allplan, I can see the following error message: "This license is no longer available" or "CmActLicense runtime system is not installed!" How can I restore the license?




Answer:

CodeMeter Control Center always saves the license to a container with the number Allplan GmbH 128-XXXXXXX on your computer.

Start CodeMeter Control Center:
Open the Windows start menu and select CodeMeter -> CodeMeter Control Center. As an alternative, open Search by clicking the Search button on the Start screen and enter Codemeter.
Check the Licenses area to see whether there is the following container: Allplan GmbH 128-XXXXXXX.
The container must have a blue-green symbol and not a red symbol


Work through the following steps:

Step 1 Restart CodeMeterService
The local Windows service, which is used by licensing, must be running.

Restart this service:
CodeMeter Control Center -> Process -> Start CodeMeter Service
If the service is running, stop it and restart it.

Now check whether the Allplan GmbH 128-XXXXXXX container is displayed.

If this has solved your problem, all you need to do is exclude Codemeter from virus scans as described in the following document: https://connect.allplan.com/en/faqid/20151209133620.html

If the container is still not visible, go to step 2.
