It worked on both of my machines! It is good to have Structure back.

It's a long download, but the install went with no problems for me on both machines.

One thing I did though was not just uninstall Structure 2.0. I also went in an removed all of the folders associated with Structure that I could find.
These folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\AIR Music Technology\Structure
C:\ProgramData\AIR Music Technology\Structure

I don't know if it was necessary but that is what I did anyway and the help support said that was important.

Thank you unkJE and Bangs. Gotta love the DUC.

These instruments are worth the hassle IMHO. They are very capable and sound great and once you learn them are a joy to play with.

Did you, like me, use the Velvet 2.0.7 Update Installer?
It didn't work for me.
I saved my User Presets to the Desktop, uninstalled Velvet (ran CCleaner and restarted computer).
Installed Velvet 2.0.7.19000, using the Full Installer. (Restarted computer).
All good here now.

You can download the Full Version (Get the Trial) here:

I wish every company included 2 licenses, but many don't. But several do(Eventide and Slate, for example)
OK, so getting back to my original problem of using 2 PCs (I guess we made it to the end of the day) you are right that this is annoying having to move the iLok. Everything works though.

So my Waves plugins work over the cloud so they don't use the iLock.

So I checked the iLock activations and it shows that I do have a second activation for all of the Air instruments. I am using 1 of 2 it says.

The problem though is Protools. It says I am using 1 of 1.

So if I have to move the iLock for Protools anyway, it is no help having the extra activation for the Air Instruments.

Darn.

It seems an extra iLok wouldn't help in my case.

Here is an image of my iLok screen.

Most welcome idea!
