AutoCad 2016-Softlock license manager error

F.Camargo — Tue, 21 Mar 2017 21:49:04 GMT

Hello guys,

My autocad isn't working. I don't know what's happening!

two alert appears on the screen.

I found this link:

This step isn't working for me:

It seems that all you have to do is:

1) Close any running applications or files or internet browsers

2) Cut the actual "FLEXnet" file ( found at C:\ProgramData )

3) Paste this file onto your desktop

4) Startup AutoCad and it should be running without issue"

Thank you for replay.

I couldn't find the first step.

In portuguese I think it is a different input for "services."

@F.Camargo

You can't reset something that isn't activated..

Select the Windows start button on your keyboard along with the R key and you should see Run dialog.

Type comexp.msc and that will bring up Windows Services.
