A local license is required

I tried to use the attach window to activiate a software, but the above message was received

@anson

good news!

I recreated your error (not intentionally). We are now officially in “the same boat”. Did you recently install/uninstall UiPath on your machine?

-will follow up once I figure out how to fix it :slight_smile:

@anson are you using enterprise or community?

if you open a command prompt and enter:

“C:\Program Files (x86)\UiPath\Studio\UiPath\Regutil.exe” get-info

what do you see? If your license shows up please dont post it without covering the numbers!

no worries you are most likely using community. It IS possible to be connected locally using a community edition, in 19.10 that option is available in the installation screen. Regutil.exe would also allow you to register after install, but you can also connect your robot to the Orchestrator to consume a license. This method is typically more straightforward.

Could you please:

Open UiPath Robot

Right click on the Ui icon in the system tray

Click Orchestrator Settings

If you are connected and licensed to the Orchestraor your screen will look like this.

Hi, My name is Rajesh.

  1. I have installed the UI Path Studio UiPath Community Edition version on 09/14/22,
  2. I have been using this for 2 weeks. Today there was a problem for some reason all my process, Sequences, Workflows which I created earlier are not working, hence I have uninstalled the UI Path Studio and Installed again.
    3)Now, it is saying the message as “Local License is required”.

Questions:

  1. The free trial should be good for 60 days right from 09/14/22?
  2. Did the uninstall created this License issue?

Please help to resolve this issue. Thanks.
