I just had to reinstall Sonic Atoms Zaria because the Steinberg Download Assistant showed an update for Zaria and I forgot that I had purchased directly from Sonic Atoms. When I opened Cubase I got a license warning for Zaria saying it was unregistered. So I reinstalled Zaria, i.e., replaced the VSTsound file with my original from Sonic Atoms, the files were different size and the file from SA was from 2021 while the updated one from Steinberg was 2022.
Someone from Steinberg should look into why the Download Assistant detected the SA version as the Steinberg version and fix this.
Anyway, a warning to any who have the Sonic Atoms versions, don’t install the update that shows in the Steinberg Download Assistant.
So seeing this again after fixing yesterday - I have the version from Sonic Atoms, not from Steinberg. When I installed this, then I get a message saying no license present. So I’ll be ignoring this, but someone from Steinberg should fix this, please.

Here the same, after the Steinberg Update of Zaria i have no licence. Must looking in backup for the old file from Sonic Atoms and copy it over the vst- file from steinberg.
Looks like this just got fixed: Zaria update no longer showing up in SDA Updates.
Thanks Steinberg.
Today there was an SDA update and now it’s back… 
So Zaria purchased from Steinberg requires an elicenser license but Zaria from Sonic Atmos doesn’t use a license. I purchased the Zaria one from Steinberg and would not like to use eLicenser anymore. When is it going over to Steinberg’s current activation system?
Who knows? They said they’re working on it, but have given no schedule on what and when libraries will be migrated.
If you really want to ditch the eLicenser, you might want to contact the Sonic Atoms guys and see if they’ll let you download their version with proof of your Steinberg Zaria purchase.
I tried contacting them and they didn’t offer to give a replacement version that they carry. I think this is due to hosting costs on their end. It would have been a nice solution but I guess I have to wait for Steinberg to get it moved over on their system. It’s a bit frustrating though why it can’t be moved faster. Thanks for trying to help, SF_Green.
