I am getting an error when I restart splunk:

I am not sure why I would be getting this error from the default folder. Is this expected, or is there a way to clean this up?
Thanks,

This is caused by the License Monitor app -- uninstall it, and the problem will go away.
What version of splunk? What version of the add-on?
we are running Splunk 6.2.2.
I am trying to find the Splunk_TA_windows version, and while I can't find the version number, it is dated 8/27/2012, so an upgrade does appear to be in order.
While I have the Splunk Health overview installed on our deployment server, I do not have the License Monitor app installed.
Having the same issue and no license monitor app installed in the environment. Has anyone solved this?
What is interesting is these are flagging as invalid keys, but they do in fact work.
