    SYNCHRO Pro - License was not activated. [CONNECT License Client SDK did not initialize successfully]

    "The license was not activated. The program will now close. [CONNECT License Client SDK did not initialize successfully] 

    SYNCHRO Pro has migrated to Bentley CONNECT Licensing. Therefore starting from release 2019, all subsequent releases have included CONNECTION Client within SYNCHRO Pro installer. CONNECTION Client must be running on user's machine for licensing SYNCHRO Pro and other desktop products properly. 

    As CONNECT Licensing is managed by the CONNECT Services team at Bentley, when a license issue occurs, we recommend raising a Service Request in CONNECT Center. Please scroll down for details on raising a Service Request for license and other CONNECTION Client issues. 

    When you run into an error similar to the following, you may be able to resolve this issue by uninstalling CONNECTION Client, uninstalling SYNCHRO Pro, and installing SYNCHRO Pro. Please go to the Solution section for the step-by-step instructions. 

    Solution

    • Go to Control Panel, uninstall SYNCHRO Pro completely
    • Uninstall Connection Client 
    • Perform a registry cleanup by running regedit from Windows> Start and removing some legacy registry folder containing 5.4 in names, if exists, in the following locations: 
      • Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Synchro
      • Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Synchro
      • Computer\HKEY_USERS\SOFTWARE\Synchro
    • Install SYNCHRO Pro which includes the installation of CONNECTION Client
