Hi Sanjay,

The best way to resolve a License Manager Error -9 (Username Mismatch) is by reactivating MATLAB with the activation client.

The activation client is located here: C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R20XXx\bin\winXX\activate_matlab.exe

Once you have launched the MATLAB activation client:

1. Select "Activate automatically using the internet."
2. Log into your MathWorks account.
3. Select the correct license.
4. The username field should auto-populate with the correct username. Leave it as it is.
5. Confirm the activation information.
6. Click "finish" to complete the activation process.
7. Restart MATLAB.
