License Error: UNREGISTERED
...
FileBot requires a valid license. Please run `filebot --license *.psm` to install your FileBot license.
* FileBot is running as [LOCAL SERVICE] using [C:\WINDOWS\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\FileBot\license.txt]
Bad License (>_<)
:idea: Each user has its own license in its own %APPDATA% folder.

:arrow: You can solve the issue by running filebot --license as LOCAL SERVICE or manually copying the license into the file path suggested in the error message.

:arrow: Alternatively, you can configure your service to run as your user instead of LOCAL SERVICE.
