License Server Problem on Windows

Question

I have 2 softwares for my studies, Ansys Electronics Desktop 2024 R1 and Keysight Advanced Design System 2025 running on my windows 10 22H2 upto about 3 weeks ago when all of a sudden, both wouldn't start due to licensing errors. Both use flexnet service and the error is always a winsock 10049 or 10061. Every suggestion on their websites I've tried to use but still, no solution so I've concluded it's something to do with windows, possibly some setting somewhere. How can I solve this?

Thank you

I am very sorry that I missed your information.
Thank you for your feedback. It sounds like you have indeed encountered issues related to Windows updates. Here are some additional suggestions:

You can view the history of Windows updates to confirm the most recently installed updates. If you are certain that an update is the root cause of the problem, you can try uninstalling it. Alternatively, you can consider using the 'restore' function to restore the system to a previous restore point.

Windows provides a built-in troubleshooting tool that can help solve update related issues. You can find it in "Settings">"Update&Security">"Troubleshooting", select "Other Troubleshooting Tools", and then run the "Windows Update" troubleshooting tool.

Use the System File Check Tool (SFC) to repair potentially damaged system files. Open the command prompt (as an administrator), enter the following command and press Enter:
sfc /scannow
This will scan and repair any damaged files in the system.

Thank you again for your feedback

Your software is still plagued with issues to do with updates involving cumulative updates.

1. The windows update download percentage does not update as the download is happening. The update will be in the process of being downloaded and I can tell that from my internet speeds going up and I will be sure that it is the update being downloaded since I have set my network as metered yet the percentage status of the download remains at 0%. So there's no way the user knows how far into the download they are. So you could turn off the machine because no download progress is being shown if you don't check your internet speeds to indicate that something is being fetched. I believe that's how I run into the problems I stated above.
2. The download percentage status is erroneous. When the percentage does tick as the download is happening, it is inaccurate. The percentage will read 100%, which I assume it means that the download is done, but more data will fetched, sometimes as much as 500MB is downloaded after the percentage status reaches 100%. Why would you design the download progress to show 100% when clearly the download process is not done? It just makes no sense that a download would continue and fetch nearly as much as was downloaded during the false 100%.
