Whenever I do work from home I use Remote Desktop which works fine with SolidWorks but when I startup SolidEdge I get this error. But if SE is already running when I remote in it works fine. Does anyone know is this was intentionally done by SE or is there a way around it? My license file is stored on the network, should it be stored locally?
We have the same problem with MasterCam on another computer here at work.

I don't know if it violates your HUL agreement to use it for work, but I believe you do get 1 HUL with each network license of SE. You could ask the VAR when you send in a support ticket for this issue.

Assuming you are a commercial customer i.e. paying for maintenance and are using node locked licensing then switch over to cloud licensing.

Node locked licensing is intentionally blocked from being able to run through Remote Desktop. Cloud licensing does not have this restriction and will allow you to start Solid Edge remotely.

Thanks for the info! We have plans to switch to floating license which as you said will fix this issue.
