The installation of the Microsoft Update „January Patch Day“ currently has the effect that several EPLAN products can not be started afterwards. This includes all products which use the EPLAN Licence Manager and / or the EPLAN Licence Client. As a rule it is, however, possible to resolve the afore-mentioned problem at short notice by temporarily de-installing the patch, i.e., the EPLAN products can be started again. At this point EPLAN explicitly points out that this suggested resolution is merely a tip and that the realization of the suggested solution is made without liability and at your own risk. So please evaluate for your company if the suggested solution constitutes a temporarily viable option for you. EPLAN is already in close contact with Microsoft and is working intensely on a sustainable solution which guarantees the customary operating ability of the EPLAN products after the installation of the patch. We will inform you immediately as soon as we can supply such a sustainable solution.
You can temporarily solve this problem as follows:
