Hi everyone,

I’m having an issue with **Google Antigravity 2.17.0** where I’m getting the following error:

> **“You do not have a valid license of this product. Please contact your administrator to request a license. If you are not an enterprise user and believe you are receiving this message as an error, please try using the latest version and logging in again. (#3501)”**

I’m using a **personal/free Google account** and have **never purchased or subscribed to any paid Antigravity plan** , so I’m not sure why Antigravity is suddenly treating my account as if it requires a license.

Things I’ve already tried:

- Signing out and signing back in
- Updating Antigravity to the latest available version
- Completely reinstalling Antigravity
- Recreating/deleting `antigravity_state.pbtxt`
- Restarting the PC
- Logging in again after reinstalling

None of these fixed the issue.

The problem is that I’m unable to use Antigravity normally because the agent terminates with the license error.

Could this be an **account/license detection issue or a bug in Antigravity 2.17.0** affecting free/personal users?

Any help figuring out what is triggering the license check would be appreciated.
