PowerPlate doesn’t find the license dongle

A valid PowerPlate licentie is on a local or network CodeMeter license dongle. Yet PowerPlate fails to pick up the license.

Solution

1. Close PowerPlate
2. Go to C:\Users\*UserName*\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\BuildSoft\PowerPlate\Starter  
   (Standard for PowerPlate Standard or Master for PowerPlate Master)
3. Open the file PowerPlateS.ini with Notepad
   (PowerPlateN.ini for PowerPlate Standard or PowerPlate3D.ini for PowerPlate Master)
4. Add a line

   CodeMeter=x-xxxxxxx
   

   with ‘x-xxxxxxx’ the number of the preferred Codemeter dongle.

5. Save this file and close Notepad.
6. Start PowerPlate.
   If he still doesn’t find the license: restart the computer and run PowerPlate with administrator rights.
