Have you reviewed the following AKN article?

Try moving your installer from the F:Drive to you C:Drive

Make sure you have the Admin rights / Anti-Virus off ...

Hi,

I am trying to install Maya 2020 on Windows 7 and keep returning this error. I have followed suggestions on the internet, yet still no solution. I am attaching the installation log file to find generous help of the work around.

Manually uninstall the AdskLicensingService.exe and reinstall most updated AdskLicensingService.exe still not giving solution.

Regards, _taktik

Without your installation log file we can only speculate what the issue is at this point. So attach your installation file here so we can review it.

Posting info: Sometimes the installation log file contains the serial # that was assigned to you. Open your log file using Windows Notepad and perform a search on "/SN". Depending on the number of installation attempts, your serial # may be located throughout the log file. If present, remove or "X" out your serial # prior to posting.

I am having the same problem re-installing Maya 2020. This happened after I uninstalled maya 2018 & 2019 and for some reason 2020 became unusable.

I'll attach my log files.

Thanks in advance for any help.

@jakejSMSHH

In your case its related to the new licensing mechanism.

Is this service there and started?

In my reply I linked an article where your Autodesk installation log files are located...

In addition you come back to this forum posting, reply and attach the log file.

Mark,

I have tried shutting down the service and installing. Same error in that case.

Prezados amigos,

Esotu com dificuldades de instalar o ROBOT 2021, Senso que eu ja tenho no meu pc a versão 2019. Mas, para aocmpanhar o trabalho dos meus alunos preciso a versao utlima do ROBOT ... Esta dando sempre ERRO 1603

Estou vendo que o antivirus pode ocacionar o erro 1603? Seria melhor realizar a instalação com antivirus desativado.

Estou anexando o arquivo *.log

Copy/Past solution for me:

This is one of the first posts to pop up on google for me so ill just post what worked for me here.

Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\AdskLicensing.

Run the uninstall.exe as administrator (right-click > Run as administrator).

Wait until all the files and folders disappear.

Navigate back to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\ folder and if AdskLicensing exists delete it.

Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\ and delete the folder AdskLicensingService

Important: Disable any antivirus and/or firewall temporarily.

Download and Install the latest Autodesk Licensing Service from the Autodesk Account: https://manage.autodesk.com/cep/#products-services/updates

Repeat the install.

I know its an old post, but I just got this error, I deleted a bunch of Autodesk entries in the registry and it worked for me. I found this company not to give two hoots about this, so I take matters into my own hands. The article for the solution is just nonsense.
