I have recently been getting this message when I try to run Visual Cobol PE.

"Unable to obtain the requested License: Error [26]: Request denied due to clock tamper detection."

I had changed my clock settings on my computer to fix my calendar,  and now this pops up when I try to run a new Cobol program. I've tried so many things to attempt to fix it. Is there any solution?

You will need to Contact your Micro Focus SupportLine representative in order to resolve the matter. You will be asked to provide the locking code of the machine and in return will receive a clean certificate which you run on the machine in order to restore the license to its previous working state.
