The image you show implies to me they are trying to use a software license.
But you mentioned they have a codemeter license.
If they have a software license then I think it should have been returned to the license pool before updating the OS.
So maybe Archicad thinks it is a new machine and can no longer find the license.
It needs to be retrieved from the pool, and if it was never sent back there and is no longer available on the machine you as the local retailer should have the resources to retrieve the licence.
If they do indeed have a silver metallic codemeter USB license, then why is Archicad asking for a software license.
I would say contact your local distributor / support person, but I am sure you have already asked yourself these question.
Maybe a complete un-install and re-install Archicad.
