Because something changed. Even though you think nothing did

Or the iLok died.

Things to try.

Move it to another port.

Disable USB port power saving.

Verify it works at iLok.com

Uninstall and and install the latest iLok drivers.


Things that can upset things.


New plugins.

Windows Updates

Antivirus

Networking settings.

Other apps overwriting settings

And, other software apps and drivers on the same computer that may access USB on the same IRQ.

You could try a System Restore, assuming you're running Windows 7, which we don't know because you haven't provided any info on your system.
