Same here.. i can't use painter.
I can't figure out what the issue could be - i've got the latest Studio drivers (but Substance keeps telling me they are outdated) and substance used to work perfectly fine. But the new version doesn't. -_-
How do we fix this?

Did you get this error again today? I had this issue come up for me too yesterday a few times, there may have been an issue on the licensing server side.

it's still happening. every. single. time.
I can't use Substance Painter anymore. I've tried reinstalling, i've removed all the "old" substance softwares, cleaned up whatever might be left.
I've tried a lot of different things. But it won't work.
By now i'm basicly just paying for a broken software that uses hdd space.

I am also having this.

It happens on the newer version with the Adobe style thumbnail. The older version works fine for me through CC. I did a full uninstall of all things Adobe/Allegorithmic, cleaned out the registry of any remains, the Appdata directory, documents and program files.

 

I got the new version running once, after installing an old version and upgrading it, but the next day the message came back.

We are still looking into this issue, we're sorry for the inconvenience and will let you know as soon as a solution is found.

If anyone encountering this issue could export a log from CC Desktop right after getting this message, that would be really useful!

Hey guys! 

 

I think we are fix this issue!
1 - I added a rule in firewall Inbound/Outbound for Substance. 

2 - I changed regional settings of the Windows: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/change-the-windows-regional-settings-to-modify-the-appear...

I changed it on US one!

After windows restart, voala! The Substance 3d Painter starts normally. 

Im not sure which step acctually is the fix, so complete both.
Thanks to the Adobe support!

Can confirm that this works. It was the regional settings that did it. I've changed it back to my local settings and it still works.

 

Great find!

Hi a5D95, did you try Mario's solution above? It did the trick here, and solved it permanently.

Hello Klas,

 

thank you for the feedback. I did before posting the message.

 

Mainly I reset all additional setting to default but did not see any change.

Not sure if something else is required with this approach.

I can take your through my steps just to make sure! You change your region here, then do a reboot. In my case I switched from Norway to English (US) like Mario. After the reboot, open the newest version of Substance Painter. It should now get through and register the license properly. Close it down, set the region back, and reboot again, and you're done.

Thank you for your time Klas.


Tried the change you advised however I get the same error. I am not sure if it is because I have the trial version.

 

However they should fix the issue or provide an official workaround in the meantime.

 

Thanks again.

The issue remains unfixed. (How many months now?)

All other creative cloud apps work fine and have worked fine in the past.

In order to run Substance 3D though and NOT get this message, I have to switch the region from Greece to US beforehand.

Every time I open the software mind you. EVERY TIME.

This is absurd.

Allegorythmic licensing servers NEVER gave any such trouble.

It goes without saying that this matter should have been fixed by now.
