Common Issues and Troubleshooting

Common issues related to the LaunchBox license file include: launchbox license file

"License Not Found" Error: This usually occurs if the file was accidentally deleted or moved out of the root folder. Restoring the file from a backup or re-downloading it from the customer portal usually resolves this.
Version Mismatch: LaunchBox is actively developed, with frequent updates. If a user holds a license for "Version 12.x" but updates the software to "Version 13.x," the license file will no longer work unless the user upgrades their license. The software will revert to the free version in this scenario (unless it is a permanent/lifetime license).
File Corruption: Improper shutdowns or disk errors can corrupt the license file. Re-downloading a fresh copy from the official website is the standard fix.

Troubleshooting checklist (quick)

Confirm license file source (official email/account).
Place file in application root or designated folder.
Restart LaunchBox.
Update LaunchBox to latest version.
Re-download license if corrupted.
Contact vendor support with order ID if unresolved.

Back up your license file. Save a copy to Google Drive, Dropbox, or a USB stick.
Do not rename it. Keep the filename as License.xml.
Keep it with your portable install. If you move your LaunchBox folder, the license moves with it.
Never share it. Posting it online allows others to impersonate your license.
Re-download if uncertain. If you suspect corruption, get a fresh copy from your account portal.

Ensure file is in correct folder (application root or %AppData%\LaunchBox depending on documentation).
Confirm filename / extension; avoid inadvertently renaming or adding .txt.
Verify LaunchBox version supports the license format; update app to latest release.
