I've got this screen on AutoCAD 2018, although search on Google and Bing but no one show how to fix it. Can anybody help me fix it?

Add the following entries to your host file >> "C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts"

127.0.0.1    genuine-software.autodesk.com
127.0.0.1    genuine-software1.autodesk.com
127.0.0.1    genuine-software2.autodesk.com
127.0.0.1    ase.autodesk.com
127.0.0.1    ase-cdn-stg.autodesk.com

 

Delete the "LoginState.xml & idservices.db" file from here:

%localappdata%\Autodesk\Web Services\LoginState.xml

%localappdata%\Autodesk\Identity Services\idservices.db

 

if error still remains : reset the license

Go to %appdata%\Autodesk\ADUT and remove all files

Go to C:\ProgramData\FLEXnet and if exists remove all files whose names begin with adskflex

 

then try to activate again

Update: I tried re-install Windows and AutoCAD 2018 three days ago.

After install I clean 'bloatware' by tool, it's delete these folder above, but not yet block host.

Today I'm tracking it.

On daily motion have a video, they show replace Pro64.sys file. But I search on Bing and Google have nothing. No one share it.

@CentOS™

Let's make one more attempt:

Reset license using previous mentioned method

add these to host files:

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

Go to this folder>  C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\CLM\V5
>> rename this file extension "clm-runtime.4025c21cbb27cdb2cb2d2e03e001dB7.5.1.151.0.db" to  .oldDB1

>> rename this file "clm-runtime.e6f8e2d20b2026a26a9675c943dc.304.0.0" to "clm-runtime.4025cb27cdb2cb2cd2ed2e3e001db7.5.1.151.0.db"

and change file attributes to  read only .

 

 

also completely block internet access to these following folders:

Use Sordum Firewall App Blocker for easily blocking folder contents in firewall {Download}

C:\Program Files (x86)\Autodesk
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared
C:\Program Files\Autodesk
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Macrovision Shared\FlexNet
C:\ProgramData\Autodesk
C:\Users\*YOUR USERNAME*\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk
C:\Users\*YOUR USERNAME*\AppData\Local\Loutodesk

Have you blocked the hosts file yet?
