Sorry, could not get a license at this time. Please try running this program later.

Could anybody let me know what I need to do?

Reinstall your e-license. I think there has been several people getting this problem with just about any game with an e-license lately.

How do you do that? This is the first time I've ever had a problem like this.

HR posted this about the same error earlier.

Not sure if this will be any help but is taken from the elicense site:

http://www.elicense.com/how/faq.asp

23 "Sorry, could not get a license at this time..."This error indicates a problem with the eLicense software on your computer. "...get a license" does not refer to license acquisition from the eLicense servers, it refers to the eLicensed application being unable to retrieve license data on your computer. With older versions of eLicense, this error may occur on Windows XP when using the Fast Switch feature, and the logged-on user is not the owner of the program. This error will also occur when trying to run eLicensed software via Terminal Server or Remote Desktop.

Posted by HFP on how to reinstall.

Look in your control panel for elicense control then click in there and look for FOF2004, click in there and then rightclick the License Details and on the the top of the little popup box it will say License state. You can also unlicense by right clicking also. You can license then unlicense from there. You can do that as many times as you want as long as you do both.

Make sure you back up your league files before messing with this though.

Wow, I've got nothing under my eLicense control...I tried to run TCY and got the same error. Something is very screwy.

Here's a thread where this was discussed and several solutions were mentioned. Hopefully one of them works for you.

Thanks for your help. Now I can see why some are so down on eLicense.
