Autodesk License service doesn't start at all

Anonymous — Mon, 13 Jan 2020 12:50:41 GMT

I've generated license file for AutoCAD 2020 and Inventor 2020 and did set up license service via LMTOOLS 11.16.2.1 as I usually did for couple of 2019 installations. But...

Service doesn't start at all.

I always get message as seen on attached screenshot.

What could be wrong?

Here is output from LMTOOLS, Perform Status Enquiry, I don't see any Autodesk message there about available licenses (should be 3000 for school)

Hello @Anonymous,

Try changing the Autodesk Desktop License Service to Local System account.

Please access your Windows Services & conduct the steps below:

At the Windows start search for "Services" & locate the Autodesk Desktop Licensing Service
Right-click "Properties" & the "Log on" tab
Select & change "Local System account"
Click Apply & Ok
Then "Restart" Autodesk Desktop Licensing Service
Launch the application

Let me know how it goes.
