Message "The license activated on the virtual machine can not be used" appears in physical machine

    hi,

    I will ask the infrastructure technicians to analyze the firewall and antivirus. We did not use virtual machines to work with TestComplete, since we already knew that the licenses were not for this type of machine.
    Thank you for the tips

    Hello,
    we were able to solve the problem.
    The user was running the Virual Box app in the box and that was what caused the problem.

    Thanks for the help.

hi,

you may have made no changes on your TC setup but you may have changed something on the LicenceManager on which the TC's licence is registered ? I could be different machines, running on the same domain.

and following onto m_essaid, also check network permissions to that license manager machine as well as firewall settings and antivirus settings between your machine and the other.
