Unable to active MBD Toolbox

[Vast-Horizon]

Hello,

I'm trying to go through the installation process of MBD Toolbox 1.1.0, but it fail to verify the license.

I do have a license on the nxp website and I can download thelicense.dat file but that doesn't work.

The thing is, It worked before on my old laptop, but I got a new laptop recently and I wanted to install these packages back. Maybe that's the reason?

Hi, @Vast-Horizon,

Usually, Error Code -9 means that the license file is correctly attached to the toolbox, but something is wrong with it.

Most likely, if you say that it worked on an older computer and now it doesn't work on the new computer, it may be because you are trying to use the same generated license file, because I see that the license you want to use is generated in the month of May.

The license is generated based on the HostID - your machine's volume partition's serial number. Use the vol command on the Command Prompt to find this serial number.

A single MBDT license associated with a single machine can be generated for each NXP account. You will need to return the license and create a new one linked to the new computer if you choose to switch the machine on which you want to use it.

I hope this solves your license activation problem.

Best regards,
