JMP 15 Pro asks for license every time I open it

[#1]

JMP Pro 15.1.0

License is in a txt file on my hard drive. I have tried providing the license through the start up dialog, the "renew license" menu item, and running "renew license through a script." All of these work and it accepts the license (it's an institutional site license). But once I close JMP, when I reopen it it says my (previous) license has expired and I have to re-link the new license. I have tried putting the license in various folders, doesn't seem to matter. 

Small thing but super annoying... any ideas?

It shouldn't do that!

Tech support will be your best bet.

[#3 · Accepted solution]

This might work:

Right click on the jmp.exe file and select "Run as administrator", or "Run with elevated privileges" (not sure of the exact wording).

Failing that Tech Support is your best bet.

I wouldn't suggest this as first (or second option), but I got some license issues solved by modifying my License File path:

I had exactly the same problem, several colleagues also (JMP Pro 16.1 on Win10),

it was solved by @pmroz 's proposal, to run as admin, then you need to import that license file, and then it's installed permanently.

I had contact to Tech support on that also, they confirmed, that license is installed in the JMP installation folder. Then it's clear, that license installation w/o admin rights cannot be persistent due to missing write permission.

I think, when installing the license as std user, JMP should throw a warning, that this will not be persistent - but don't know, whether it will be considered to change (but I gave that feedback to Customer Support DACH).

I was not able to resolve by just elevating permissions. I was however able to fix it (on Windows) by uninstalling JMP, deleting the SAS folder from my roaming folder (type "%appdata%" into the search bar), and reinstalling JMP.
