Hi @Anonymous

Could you try the solutions in this link: License System Error 1 When I try to start Revit 2017 ?

Also, check this post from another user with the same error: Revit 2017 Licensing System Error 1. See if it helps.

I have a similar issue. When I start Revit 2018 for the first time after starting my computer I get this same "licensing system error 1".

Pressing Ok closes Revit. Then Starting Revit again it works without licensing error.

So you might to try to start it second time and see if that works.

In my case it looks that it is too slow to get licensing data?

Hello everyone,

I installed Revit 2018 last night, and also get this error.

I have already tried everything on the list of fixes for the 2017 version of the error, but it still persists.

Anybody got anymore suggestions?

Thanks for your help,

Hello @Anonymous,

I have tested Revit 2018 using the "Download Now" method from the Autodesk Account. The only issue I had was with Visual C++ 2015 in the install log. Try the steps below.

Conduct a Clean Uninstall of the program use MSfixitTool to complete the uninstall
Log in as an Administrator
Empty your TEMP folder. To open the TEMP folder, type %TEMP% in the address bar of Windows Start Menu and hit Enter
Temporarily disable your Antivirus software & Firewall
Temporarily disable UAC: Windows 7 , Windows 10
Download from Autodesk Account or via the Autodesk Virtual Agent (download all the parts)

You may have a conflicting c++ installed. If you need to uninstall & reinstall a Visual C++ redistributable on the Microsoft website:

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable (x86)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable (x64)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable (x86)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable (x64)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable (x86)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable (x64)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Update 4 Redistributable (x86 and x64)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x86 and x64)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable (x86 and x64)

Thank you for posting.

Dear Natasha,

I'm sorry but Visual ++ 2012 and 2013 are no longer available.

I tried to start Revit 2018 without these but Licensing Error 1 still remains.

Maybe this is the same reason why Revit 2017 is no longer starting too?

Any advice?

Thanks,

Bart

Hello @Daniel_Voinkov,

Try this link instead and conduct the same steps. The latest supported Visual C++ downloads. If this does not resolve it try the following steps:

Make sure you have an updated graphics card driver by checking the manufacturer's website (Assign the correct Graphics Card - Step #8)
How to reset to defaults
Check the Operating System needed & the required updates by reviewing the system requirement for the software
Update your product with the latest service pack or Hotfixes by visiting the Autodesk website or account
Reboot the computer
In Windows Start, delete unnecessary items in the Windows Temp folder, but do not delete the Windows Temp folder itself. You can locate the Temp folder by entering %TEMP% in the Search bar of Windows Start
Temporarily disable antivirus & firewall, use Task Manager to "End Task" feature to end the anti-virus software or other items that could be running in the background
If the above does not resolve the issue continue & try Clean Uninstall of the product and try a browser download via Autodesk Virtual Agent (download all the parts) and install the product again

Thank you for posting.

Hi Natasha,

I tried all the other tips you gave and nothing worked.
By accident I found out that the mscvcp110.dll en msvcr110.dll were missing.
Replacing these files solved the problem.

Greetings,
Bart

Hi Bart,

Where did you put those dll files?

I found the solution repairing Microsoft Visual C++ 2012; 2013; 2015 ("modify" --> "repair").

THANK YOU!!! This worked for me as well, looks like I didn't have to do a factory reset on my laptop after all!

Hi All,

I'm having the exact same problem, but when I checked the solutions under the Revit 2017 board, I found that my FLEXnet folder was empty, I'd imagine that means no licence file is being generated? It doesn't even give me the option to put a licence serial number in

Just to follow up, you have to reinstall the full suite of Visual C++ Redist, use the installer tool on majorgeeks, took 5min and fixed everything
