Inventor stuck on loading screen

I downloaded the trial version and it installed properly but now when I start the program it gets stuck on the loading screen and shows an error text.

Are you saying that initially it ran fine but now something has happened and it no longer runs?

Hi! This could be licensing related. Inventor was not even loaded. Only the splash screen is shown. Try a few things.

1) Kill any existing Inventor.exe process.

2) Install Autodesk Licensing Service update (https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Autodesk-Licensing-Service-Updates.html). Or, install the latest Inventor update applicable to your release.

3) Reset license. Go to CMD -> type in the following (replace xx with your exact release number).

"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 20xx\Bin\Inventor.exe" -unlicense

4) Restart Inventor.

Many thanks!

No, I haven't got it running yet.
