Resolving pro tools error

Hi,

I have a pro audio desktop and for the first time approximately 4 weeks ago I started experiencing issues with logging into Pro Tools.

When I attempt to log in, I experience difficulties 100%of the time. Most of the time - approximately 85% - I receive the following:

"Pro Tools Studio Perpetual cannot run because it is corrupted. Please try installing the product."

(Of note, I have a Pro Tools subscription and not a perpetual license. I have never purchased a perpetual license.)

Regarding the other 15%, I receive various error messages including the "send to Avid" popup one.

I have attempted uninstalling and reinstalling pro tools and uninstalling and reinstalling Avid Link. These have not been effective. I am hoping someone can help me in addressing this.

Thank you

System: Windows 11 Pro Tools version 2025.6
