Questa Starter Edition - unable to checkout license - path defined properly, verified by tool

Hello Intel,

I am facing problem with Questa starter licence - I followed all the steps, generated license file online and add LM_LICENSE_FILE path to the system variables (windows). But I am getting error message attached, I tried to run diagnostic tool (lmutil lmdiag) as recomended in the error message, and there everything seems to be ok.

Do you have any advice how to resolve this issue? I tried to generate license file several times, no success

Thank you

Regards

Michal
