Trying to deactivate trados license but getting error: multiple instances of this application running

I'm trying to deactivate my trados license to change to a new desktop computer and I keep getting this error: There are multiple instances of this application running. Close the other instances before before deactivating the license.

I have restarted windows multiple times and it's still not working. Note I am working on a mac via a virtual machine (parallels desktop)

Please can you let me know what to do as I need to work asap.

Thank you
