Worked for me! Immediately after the Windows 10 October 2018 update, I saw message from Cubase that my elicenser hardware had changed. Running “maintenance” in elicenser control center resolved the error, as described.
@vendiminion yes i learned only recently that i can drag a license from the soft elicenser to the usb dongle. This is useful. However I understand that, once you have done it, you can’t move it back.
