Ha! Here's what is going on. I let one of my daughters have the Mac I bought from Don. After a while the battery died. So, I dug out the PC that I had before this one. She can't afford to get a new one. It's slow but it works. My other daughter has a win11 Alienware computer. She's the one who is interested in getting her Start Menu fixed up.

Hello,
If you purchased the 5‑license active install pack, you can use it on up to five different systems. However, if you only have a single license (whether permanent or annual), it is valid for just one system. Please also note: if your system hosts two virtual machines (VMs) and you want Start11 running on both, each VM requires its own license as well.
Thank you,

As I seem to remember, you can use your sub on 2 of your machines. Clearly your daughter borrowed your other machine and you thought it was her machine.
