Hello,

It seems like you're having trouble deactivating your Trados Studio license due to an error message indicating multiple instances of the application running. Here are some steps you can try:

Step 1: Ensure all instances of Trados Studio are closed. Check your system tray to make sure there are no hidden instances running.

Step 2: Restart your computer. This can often resolve issues with applications that appear to be running multiple instances.

Step 3: If the problem persists, you can try running the lsinit.exe file as an administrator. Here's how:

  a. Close Trados Studio.

  b. Navigate to C:\Program Data\Package Cache\SDL\SDLTrados Studio(version number that you have).

  c. Right-click on the lsinit.exe file and select 'Run as Administrator'.

  d. Start Trados Studio and try again to deactivate the license.

If these steps do not resolve your issue, it may be necessary to perform a clean reinstall of Trados Studio. Please remember to back up your settings and resources before doing so.
