Urgent: "Unable to acquire V-Ray for Rhinoceros GUI License"

[Helldoor]

Hey there folks,

I wanted to render something small for tomorrow, but suddenly V-Ray cannot find a license (Unable to acquire V-Ray for Rhinoceros GUI License) and won't start. Checking the 'http://localhost:30304/' says the page couldn't load. Do you also experience this problem or something on my system wrong?

Thanks in advance

Ok, I have it. For all of you, who may experience this issue:

It is (most probably) caused by the recent big Windows 10 Update, fixing the OS security and the user's private data. While doing this, the update also undoes the exceptions in the firewall, that you agree to, during the V-Ray 3 installation. So, in order to solve the problem, you'd have to manually add the firewall exceptions yourself or simply just reinstall V-Ray (I highly recommend uninstall + a clean new install).
That's it.
Cheers.
