Hello everyone! My name is David and I haven't posted in like 6 weeks. Helping a customer recover from ransomware can be a consuming and exhausting task.

No ProfileUnity License Server defined after 6.8 Upgrade
After recently completing a ProfileUnity 6.7 to 6.8 upgrade, I received a login message within AWS WorkSpaces that stated, "No ProfileUnity License server defined.

AWS re:Invent – The Ultimate Team Building Experience?
Though it's not officially over at the time of my writing, AWS re:Invent 2018 has ended for me.
