Default "The licensing service required to activate this software is not running."

This happens sometimes:

Activation Error - C:\Program Files\Avid\Pro Tools\ProTools.exe

The licensing service required to activate this software is not running. Please reinstall the product or download and run the iLok License Manager installer here:

OK

Started with PT11. iLok is plugged in. Tried reinstalling software.

Windows 7 64-bit.

Yeah it's there.

I'm not sure but I think I might not have updated the iLok software like I previously thought I had. I tried downloading and installing the newest iLok software and I'll see if it comes up again.

Have you disabled Power Management on all USB ports?(aka "USB Root Hub" in Device Manager).
