Installed 8.6.1f1 Patch - now LabVIEW has 'no license available'

[Brett_Percy]

I've just installed the 8.6.1f1 Patch - and now LabVIEW refuses to start.  I had a look in the license manager and the correct key is in there, but when I try to run LabVIEW it's listed as 'no license available'

This will occur when the 30 day trial period has already been used.  If you look in NI License Manager  it shows the License File Expiration.  This will either state the date it expires or 30 days from first use

Thanks for the reply Muks,

I installed the patch on top of a copy of 8.6.1 that I've been using for many months, it's was definitely registered correctly before the patch.  According to the license manager it was still registered with no expiry date!

Anyway, I've since repaired my installation and it's now working again.  I don't know if the patch correctly installed now though; it seems unlikely
