Please try to disable first the firewall and the anti-virus of your PC then try to activate the license again. Please also send me the license key via private message so that we can check it on our end and have it reset.

Hi John,
did that already with disabling firewall and antivirus. Also used the admin account. No difference. Also install-user account makes it no better.
The license key I will send by private message

As per checking, the 5-licenses that you have is still unused. This license is only applicable to VPN Client Lite and not to VPN Client Professional. Please try to use the VPN Client Lite or vice versa.

Thanks for reply, John.
Of course we use VPN Client lite as that came with the router.
Really weird.
OK, in the meantime we found another solution: we buy the software from Greenbow - from which Netgear obviously has purchased it in the first place. That is exactly the same software and works fine on that computer.
thanks for trying.
