Activation Manager - Sign In Button does nothing - Windows 10

Cubase

Hey Team,
I just download the Cubase 14 and when I open it it opens the “SteinbergActivationManager”. When I click Sign In nothing happens.
I tried to follow the troubleshooting steps but had no success.
Btw, I feel like something is kinda happening when I press SIGN IN because my GeForce overlay pops up. Feels like something is trying to open.

Troubleshoot steps I tried:

  • Uninstall and install everything. (Literally everything from steinberg)
  • Add a different default Browser (Edge and Chrome)
  • Run as Admin
  • Disable Firewall
  • Add exception on Windows Defender.

I found another post similar to this one created a month ago, but the troubleshooting was a MacOS. I have a windows 10.

OS: Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2

Can someone help me out?

Hi, sorry for the inconvenience. We had some users with the same issue who could sort it out by configuring another DNS e.g. the one from Google, see also my post here Steinberg Activation Manager "Sign In" not working - #62 by SKnapp.
Others had luck using a VPN, e.g. the free version of Proton VPN to make the sign in step work.
