Quit the Roon Server application on the Laptop. See also:

Quit Roon Server on the Laptop from running.

I tryed allready via the task manager then roon asked me to sign in and all the same again

Don’t use Task Manger - set the correct options in the Roon Server menu as described in the Help article already referred to.

I can not open the roon server that is exaxtly the problem

If your Windows 11 machine is showing alongside your K50 then Roon Server is still running on it.
Quit Roon Server from running following the provided guide and also make sure that “Launch on startup?” is deselected.

If it’s running then it should be visible in the apps running in the background section of the Taskbar - you may need to click on the ^ to make the whole list visible. E.g.:

It is not visible either in the task manager nor in the section you describe

Presumably because you’d used Task Manager to end the task previously. I suspect that if you reboot your PC then it will come back again because you’ve got the “Launch at startup” still checked in the Roon Server menu…

And if you are still getting the “you need a second subscription” message when you try and sign on to the correct Roon Server, just click the “Unauthorise” button. The License Server in Roon Labs HQ still thinks that you are using the Roon Server that you have closed.

it is still the same do you mean the deautorise button

I mean below your device K50 server unauthorize if I do so do I loose my data?

Look, if you get a screen like this when you try and connect to your K50 server, just click the Unauthorize button. The Roon Labs license server thinks that your licence is active on your Desktop PC, so you click the Unauthorize button to transfer your Roon licence to the K50 server.

And you won’t lose any data on your K50 server.

Thanks a lot this worked !
