"Access denied" error during license checkout

Some LM-X License Server features that you and/or your end user may optionally enable involve storing client data. For example, borrowing or checking out a floating license with enabled automatic server discovery require OS-level synchronization between different processes. 

If initiating one of the above actions fails under Windows, LM-X may return the error code LMX_SYSTEM_INTERPROCESS indicating a resource locking error. Furthermore, if you want to borrow a license by setting the environment variable LMX_BORROW, you may see the following error: 

Unable to checkout: 
LM-X Error: (Internal: 23 Context: 23)
Access is denied.

In most cases, removing C:\ProgramData\boost_interprocess should solve this problem.
