Hi, When I compile using version V5.06 update 6 (build 750) I do not have any problems. Everything works very well. With version 5.24a of uVision, I could compile perfectly with ARMCLANG, and when I upgraded to version 5.25, I could also compile with ARMCLAND V6.9. But from one day to the next, I could not compile more, it gives me license errors, and I should not have them. For now I am working with version 5.06 of the compiler, but I want to use version 6.9 that has more benefits for me.
*** Using Compiler 'V6.9', folder: 'C:\Keil_v5\ARM\ARMCLANG\Bin' Rebuild target 'Filter' ArmClang.exe: error: Failed to check out a license.Keil Licensing error: No TOOLS.ini file found ArmClang.exe: note: Check that your license details are correct in the License Management dialog of MDK.

There is some solution to the problem, or I have to do an outdated version to version 5.24a. Greetings.
Hi
I have been dealing with exactly the same issue via the Arm Support team in Germany. Apparently "This is known issue with ARMCLANG and latest windows 10 update 1803" however I cannot find any reference to the problem on teir website.
They suggested that the easiest way to solve the issue is to use a flex licence rather the stand alone licence I was previously using.
To implement this fix, they provided me with a PSN which allowed me to generate a licence.dat file using the licence generator on their website. Then I had to download the FlexNet license server and install it on the same PC that I was running the uVision MDK.
The bit they didn't tell me was that the licence.dat file generated from my PSN was missing of the following 2 lines of code which have to be added near the beginning
SERVER computername macaddress VENDOR armlmd c:flexnet\armlmd
where computername is the name of your computer and macaddress is the MAC address of your network card.
Obviously, you would have to get the appropriate PSN from ARM before implementing this fix so, if you are running the free version, I don't know where this leaves you.
Please get back to me if you need further help as I have not written up the details of how to do the installation.
how to generate a licence.dat?
You need to be signed in to your arm account. Then navigate to:
silver.arm.com/.../generate.tm
and enter the serial number. Of course you have to get a flexlicense serial number from Keil first.
