My PC processed the Windows 10 Creators Update, and afterwards when I ran the Steinberg e-Licenser Control Center I got the following error message:
“The Soft e-Licenser stored on this computer seems to be altered in an unrecoverable way.
Please contact your software vendor to solve this issue.”
The license affected was my Dorico license.
A Google search returned this link to a Cubase customer who had the same problem:

The customer was advised to run the e-Licenser Control Center as administrator, and doing so solved their problem.
I tried it, and it solved my problem as well. I thought I’d share this to help anyone else who might encounter the same error message.
