Greetings, For those who may be having an error where the dependency data for the expansions can not be loaded because of missing or invalid licenses, there is a fix for those comfortable with editing the registry in windows.
go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> Blizzard Entertainment -> Starcraft II Editor -> Prefernces and check the BattlenetRegion value. if it is blank or incorrect then set it to you local region. For North America the value is "us".
Edit to improve understanding and Thanks to ArcaneParaiah for the help diagnosing and fixing this issue
Edit 2: it appears this dose not actually fix the issue and we are still stuck with a work around of loading up the game first and then exiting that and loading the editor.

Yeah It appears that what i thought worked didnt really, looks like its up to blizzard to get this fixed, Sorry to have mislead some folks. Best Practice for now is to report on the Blizzard forums. and just load and exit the game before loading the editor.

Thanks. The only thing I can find is BattleNetRegion and the value is already set to "eu-s2.logon.battle.net". Still has expansion dependency error.

It shouldn't be that long url, just the 2 character code for the region, so change it to "eu"
I don't have an entry that's simply called region. I tried creating one but it didn't help.
sorry, i fixed my post to name the correct Field. its BattleNetRegion and for the EU region would be "eu". i hope this helps.
I can't find the BattleNetRegion?
@OutsiderXE: Go
It's probably the (Standard) key on the top, since its unset in your registry.
i Just had a look and mine is set right already but i still get the error
