HI everyone
I'm having the same issue, except the 'fix' isn't helping. I continue to get the Starting Service message and it continues for hours.
As well as deleting teh contents of the folders, I've also Repaired and uninstalled / re-installed the software wth reboots between.
My biggest concern, I've deleted the UI - do I still have a license key? I noted that I'd need to re-enter the key when the UI comes back up again.
Are there any other solutions or suggestions?
