Hi,

I am getting this error “Could not obtain a license for SolidWorks Standard” after I upgraded my machine to Microsoft server 2012. I was in the assumption that the licensing was not upto date and I tried updating the license manager with no luck. I looked at the license borrowing table of the license manager to find a couple of licenses there. Still wondering why this is failing. Can anybody here help me on this? Help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
