For me, it keeps trying to install the iLok helper software but fails every time so I can't actually use Softube Central anymore. WTF.

Change log for 2.5.79 (Released on February 20th, 2024)
Note! This update contains a major structural change to how data is saved in all Softube plug-ins. This means that if you save a project using this version it will not be possible to downgrade to an earlier version of the plug-in and load the project. Furthermore Amp Room, Console 1, and Modular version 2.5.79 will only function correctly with plug-ins/modules of version 2.5.79 (or newer). In short; please make sure to update all your Softube plug-ins to the latest version.

New products:
• Clipper
• Widener

New features and bug fixes

All products:
• New and improved parameter tooltips implementation. This is configurable in the plug-in Settings menu with two available options. See the plug-in Settings menu for more information.
• There is now one Undo/Redo queue per ABCD state.
• Fixed an issue where Undo/Redo did not work properly for Extended Features.
• Fixed various cosmetic issues in the Plug-in Preset Browser.
• Fixed an issue where some module tags were not available in Preset Collection for Amp Room, Console 1, and Modular.
• Added a "Clear Current Preset As Default" option to Plug-in Preset Browser and made "Set All Values to Factory Default" available at all times.
• Fixed an issue that could cause the DAW to become unresponsive when running too many plug-in windows open at the same time on Windows.
• Fixed an issue where opening and closing several plug-in windows could cause the rendering in the remaining windows to fail when using OpenGL on Windows.

Amp Room:
• Fixed an issue that could cause Amp Room to crash when opening the plug-in in VST2.
• Fixed a rare issue that could cause Amp Room Cab Loader to crash in Amp Room upon instantiating the Amp Room plug-in.
• Fixed an issue where the mic position could change when closing/reopening the GUI.
• Fixed a crash in Studio One when changing IRs in the LoadIR module.
• Made sure that the background changed according to the loaded Suite when using Undo/Redo.

Console 1 System:
• New Console 1 Channel Mk III firmware (FW 15.1.9) which includes:

• New Waveform view for compressors.
• Improved potentiometer implementation with better fault detection and tolerances.
• USB-C power distribution output now works when input is a high-power charger (like the MacBook 96 W charger).
• USB-C power distribution output power is now always the highest possible (rather than a conservative estimate).
• Fixed red LED meter ghost effect that was happening on some HW-units.

• Added Windows Narrator support for Console 1 On-Screen Display.
• Added new screen reader settings for track selection and parameter touch/change to the Console 1 On-Screen Display.
• DAW Volume changes should now be smoother.
• Fixed an issue where Console 1 Fader touch did not show which parameter was modified in the track view.
• Improved plugin GUI snappiness in VST3 Cubase 13 on Mac.

Model 80 Five Voice Synthesizer:
• Optimized CPU handling for the aging feature.

Tube-Tech Blue Tone:
• Added Modular and Amp Room support.

Tube-Tech Classic Channel Mk II:
• Fixed an issue where switching from Mk I to Mk II while having "EQ before Compressor" resulted in no sound.

Weiss MM-1 Mastering Maximizer
• Fixed an issue causing the background colour of the MM-1 menu was red instead of white.

I had a similar issue where it wouldn't connect to the iLok server. I did a force quit on the Softube installer then loaded it up again. It is working normally now. Maybe it could fix your issue as well.
