    I have already done a uninstall / reinstall and the license has been allocated although the context menu is missing in ssms had to do it through sql history

    Having the exact same problem. 
    I am on ssms 22.2.1

    with sqlprompt 11.3.4.20814

    and sqlsearch 3.9.4.6402

    Tried several things for fixing, including reseting settings in ssms. none seemed to work.

    the only hint i see is in the logs.:

    I managed to resolve this on SSMS 22.2.1 by following these steps from support:

    “can you please uninstall SSMS and SQL Search, then reinstall SSMS and SQL Search, specifically in that order”
