Still no love.
I gave up on Sonar X3 for now and re-installed Project5.  Guess what?  Guru and AAS Ultra-Analog say they are not authorized.
- they are authorized and I do not have duplicate copies of them on my computer.
- they work in every other host I own
 
I don't own Sonar, and Projec5 is discontinued, so I'm pretty much stuck now.

Hmmmm  I can't speak for Guru, but i know that AAS products  will give that message if you do not run with admin rights.

Contact Cakewalk. I have geist and AAS and never had any problem. Just a long short, did you ever change your motherboard and use new OS? I had problem with addictive drum which I change MOBO. That's because the authorization is tie to the MOBO in AD's case.

I'd contact Cakewalk but their contact support but you can only do that if you have select registered products.  ie have a registered copy of Sonar.
I guess my only option to try and wipe Cakewalk products and Guru, and try again.

You do know that running a program as an administrator is different to running a program with administrator rights.

Right click the sonar icon and select Run as Administrator. Just checking as this is frequently confused.

Hi, yes I'm sure I'm running as administrator.
I'll just uninstall and reinstall everything.
