Type "services.msc" into Start Menu's search bar.
Right-click the result at the top, click "Run as administrator"

Find the Service "Software Licensing". If it is not running,
right-click it and click "Start". If it says it's running, Stop it,
then Start it again.

Check the properties of the service and make sure it is set
to "Automatic".
