Why is this so impossible? I have two plug ins (One knob louder and Linear Multiband). If I add a license to one plug in, the other becomes unlicensed. I can never get both running together. However I can get the state where neither are licensed at all.
 
EDIT - Ok - done it now, but I don't know how apart from I uninstalled and reinstalled the two. I was tempted by Loair (any good?) but I daren't use any other of their products in case it becomes a three-way fight.

WLC can get wonky at times when adding licenses.I own the Mercury Bundle and when a new plug comes out that I want to use and buy when I add it gets wonky..and then an uninstall/reinstall tends to fix it. If you are looking at LoAir( works well) and you have Splat Bark of the Dog works very well.Rbass (Waves) I love.Lowender(reFuse) is another one that works fantastically for low end information.All those have replaced my outboard DBX120A's( sold them).

When you run the Waves installer (woli) make sure all of your products have a check mark next to them, even if they have been installed previously.

Thanks guys. It seems a bit non - intuitive,  but I'll have to live with it. Thanks also for the suggestions for low end enhancers. I've been trying a combination of Waves' linear phase comp with bark of dog, but I may try one of those  enhancer plug ins, although sub - harmonic synths seem to me to be a bit lumpy and false.

If I add a plug, I always D/L the latest licenser and check the boxes for everything to get a fresh install of the bunch. It seems to really reduce problems and it came right from Waves tech support.

I never use the online installer. I have about 20 or so Waves plugs, all purchased one by one. I have never had an issue with installing or licensing. Here is what works for me.
 
Download the Offline installer.
Run the installer and put a check by all the plugs you purchased.
Complete the installation.
Run the Waves licenser. (I keep all my licenses local, no iLock)
Lastly, Scan plugins in Sonar. Be sure to put a check by (scan existing plugins). The way Waveshell works, you must rescan existing plugins for the new ones to show up.

I gave up with Waves plugins because of wonky license issues. I've bought a few on various deals but I got tired of having issues.

Since many don't have issues I wonder if there's something about my system that waves doesn't like. it's like waves licensing sees my computer as a different system because I end up with different names for the same PC during the course of a year.

When things go wrong it's not an intuitive system and its not stable for me

My box also suffered the woli syndrom,
The Waves service  team gave following  hind :
Make sure that the waveshell is read only once during the vst  scan process,
cause the waveshell 9.3 is the first waveshell not accepting other waveshells.
That has been the matter for different license problems of my box, 
Haven t´been aware of the possible following location of the waveshell:
c/user/name/appdata/roaming/waves/preferences

I hate the all in one installers.  You have to pay attention before every mouse click.

I had a problem once and waves gave me a fix pronto. Turns out like so often it was user naivety.
