Problem

If you change the CPU on your computer, for example going from an i5 to i7, MassCore will still try to run on the previous CPU installed, and will not be able to start.
Symptoms are that MassCore is installed if you look at the Windows Programs & Features list, but MT Security panel - MassCore tab tells you that MassCore is not installed.
Also, the Merging network card will not work, and you will not be able to detect any RAVENNA device plugged on the Merging network card. 

Solution

That happens because Windows stores any piece of hardware that you have ever used,  we need to remove the previous CPU from Windows database
