License error message is vague when hardware has changed
How to reproduce:
1. Navigate to “C:\ProgramData\Unity”
2. Open the “Unity_lic.ulf” file, with text editor of your choice
3. Change a few characters in the “MachineID Value” string
4. Save the file
5. Open Unity Hub
6. Open any project
7. Observe the Hub
Expected result: A pop up dialog box is displayed with descriptive message
Actual result: A pop up dialog box is displayed with vague message
Reproducible with: Unity Hub 3.12.1
Reproducible on: Windows 11
Not reproducible on: No other environments tested
Notes:
- Before reproducing the issue, with provided steps, it is advisable to save a copy of the file, so that later the license can be restored.
- Reproduction steps are simulating hardware changes.
- After performing hardware upgrades, the license is no longer valid. As a result we get a “License Error” dialog box with the message: “No valid Unity Editor license found. Please activate your license.”. The message is vague and doesn’t provide much assistance in figuring out what happened.
