Licensing Issues After Windows Update
Overview
It was recently discovered that following certain Windows® 10 updates, users may experience issues with licensing / HASP drivers, where licenses are not being recognized.
This may affect any software that utilizes Gemalto Sentinel licensing tool, such as CAM2, SCENE, FARO Zone, BuildIT, As-Built, etc. In addition, certain hardware device connectivity issues may occur where license validation is part of that process.
If you are experiencing issues, try the following:
- Try to Start or Restart the Sentinel LDK License Manager Service.
- Updating/reinstalling the HASP driver will often resolve most other issues. Refer to the following article for this procedure: Download and Install the SafeNet Sentinel HASP License Driver and FARO Remote Update System (RUS)
