Please note:

With GlobalVision Desktop 5.8 and later the line must also contain the serial number as well as company name using the format: <License>:<Company name>

Troubleshooting:

To make sure there is no issue with the license you will need to log into the GlobalVision Desktop application while encountering no issues.

Solution:

If you surround the company name in quotation marks “COMPANY NAME“ the inspection will complete
