This error occurred when I started debugging a simple program using MDK Lite Ver 5.38.0.0. From the error message two issues are apparent: The licence file is missing and the location of the licence file is expected to be under the C:\Program Files folder. My installation of MDK Lite is under a folder called C:\Keil_v5 which I think was the default folder suggested by the installation program.

Hi Rex,
That doesn't look like a CID:https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ka002857/latest/
I initially used the Windows device ID: Settings -> System -> About. Hence the long hex string. After following the link in your answer I was able to download and install the licence file.
Thank you.
