License Error during start-up

Hello folks,

After what appeared to be a successful installation of 2016, upon start up i received a "LICENSE ERROR", the license managing software is missing or not correctly installed.

I was logged in as the Administrator, and I've had several successful installations on other machines.

I tried deleting the FLEXnet files, didn't work; I tried the cascade file delete, didn't work; tried reinstalling 2016, didn't work.

After trying the FLEXnet delete, CAD would just tell me that the license was not valid, etc etc etc..

Any suggestions of what to do?

What is your OS and your license type?

Did you check to see if the Autodesk license service was running under Services? Verify you have local admin rights, UAC is off, and anti-virus is temporarily disabled.
