Why is license checking endless?

I mount an image in DT Lite 4.45.4.0314, and it says 'license checking'. It takes minutes and is really annoying. Sometimes it just keeps checking and checking until I shut the process down and restart the program. Is there a way to turn it off?

The License Checking takes too much time because one component of the DAEMON Tools Lite is not working properly. This can be easily fixed through a reinstallation procedure. I recommend reinstalling the software then watch its behavior. Additionally, when you install it make sure to use Run as Administrator. The same goes for its launch.

If you keep having issues, go to Start > Run > devmgmt.msc and locate the DAEMON Tools in the list. If it's with a yellow marker, right click it and then remove the device. Press the Scan button and let Windows install the driver again. Launch the software and the issue should disappear.

Using "Run as administrator" worked for me.
