I ran the Windows 10 Creators Update yesterday and now my Cubase 9 won’t load. It says “Soft-eLiceneser doesn’t have enought permissions to run properly. Please run LCC to fix this problem.” What is the LCC? Also the message has two typos so should I be suspicious?
This happens after each of the major Windows 10 updates. Just run the eLicenser Control Center “as Administrator” – right-click and select More > Run as Administrator. You only need to do that once. LCC was the former name of the eLicenser Control Centre.

This might be of help. Had this problem myself: cubase would not launch and eLicenser got stuck on maintenance. Tried uninstalling old and installing latest version of eLicenser. Still had problems. Turns out windows update had installed a microsoft driver for the usb 3 port. Uninstalled this and installed the manufacturers latest usb 3 driver. Then installed eLicenser and [important] run as admin and did maintenance successfully. Been rock solid ever since.
I do now dread windows [10] updates every 6 months and I am always nervous about cubase annual 0.5 updates as well. I wish these system glitches could be ironed out by having some sort of agreed protocol between microsoft and steiny …
Best of luck - I know how you feel.
Could you tell me the usb info windows indtalled so I can uninstall it please? Its screwed all my software not just cubase🤬
I am having the same problems and it seems to be caused my a win update that makes my USB ports not function properly. How did you figure out about the driver updates on your USB ports?
