For those of you who have PACE iLok software licenses for your VST/VSTi plugins:
iLokReset (Win10)---This is a major time and sanity saver (thanks to SeaGTgruff)
This will save you about 20-30 minutes of needless aggravation; you won't have to uninstall the iLok software, reboot, download the latest iLok software, (re)install the latest iLok software, reboot, run the iLok software, and login to your iLok account to update your licenses. Just do the following:
->Control Panel->System and Security->Administrative Tools->Services
Either: (a) Double-click on PACE License Services and then click on the [Start] button in the popup window
. . . or . . .
(b) Select/Highlight PACE License Services and click on the underlined "Start" link that appears in the upper-left corner of the services list
That's it. This procedure even has a longer-lasting effect than the unistall/re-install that the iLok error message suggests. Only heaven knows why PACE doesn't post this info on its website. The reset might become necessary after Windows updates or some software installations.

P.S.: You can make a desktop shortcut to get to the Services page even quicker, and get up-and-running in about 10 secondswhen the need arises: ->Control Panel->System and Security->Administrative Tools->right-click on "Services" and select "Send to Desktop" from the dropdown menu. The icon will look like two, pale-blue, meshed gears.

You can't use any VST or VSTi plugin in Pro Tools. Avid doesn't all support for those kinds of formats. You can only use RTAS or AAX if you have PT10, RTAS only if the version is older, and AAX if the version is 11 or newer.

You can only use RTAS or AAX if you have PT10, RTAS only if the version is older, and AAX if the version is 11 or newer. Respectfully, I think you might be missing the point here: This is not about the format for your plugins but rather quickly resetting your Windows iLok management software, regardless of the DAW or plugin you use. If you get the error message saying that a component is missing from you PACE/iLok software and it asks you to re-install the newest version OR an iLok protected plugin won't start, the steps I listed are can be real time-saver until PACE addresses the unwanted stopping of Windows Service for the iLok management software.

It appears that the latest update of the iLok Manager software is much more stable with regards to this service off/on issue.

Just a minor tweak to above if some folks still have trouble in Win 10 with Pace (iLok):
Instead of just selecting "Start" it in Services select this option
"Start delayed"
