7 years agoI found that if I manually start the license daemon via the following command, it runs with two pop-up windows, one for the lmgrd and one for the alterad:
"C:\Altera\lic_daemon_win64\lmgrd" -c "C:\Altera\License_File\altera_license.dat"So it seems that the problem might be with the service. I tried using the lmtools GUI to delete and then re-create the service. I named the service "Altera License Manager"
C:\>sc qc "Altera License Manager"
