If your iLok USB has been lost, stolen, or broken, there are steps you can take to recover your Sonnox licences.
The recovery process depends on whether or not you have iLok Theft & Loss Coverage (TLC) enabled.
How To Recover Your Licences
Submit an RMA to iLok (PACE)
- Go to the iLok RMA Page.
- Follow the on‑screen instructions to report your iLok as lost, stolen, or broken.
- You’ll receive an RMA reference number — keep this safe.
If You Have Theft & Loss Coverage (TLC)
- With TLC enabled, your licences are replaced automatically by iLok once your RMA is processed.
- Follow iLok’s instructions to complete the recovery and re‑activate your licences.
If You Do Not Have Theft & Loss Coverage (TLC)
- Sonnox will need to manually replace your licences.
- Manual replacements can take 3 or more working days.
- Please contact our Support Team and include:
- Your iLok User ID
- Your RMA reference number
Troubleshooting
- If your iLok is damaged but still functional, try syncing it in iLok License Manager before starting the RMA process. You can do this by selecting your iLok USB and going to View > Synchronise.
