Activated TT Deluxe 2024 asking for activation again after 3 installs

Hi - 

 

I have TT Deluxe 2024 desktop edition. I am running it within a (registered) Windows 11 Virtual Machine on a MacBook Pro. It installed and runs fine, but has asked to be activated again... twice. The Activation Manager site for my account indicates that I have used all 3 installations, but this includes two installations on the same Virtual Machine. How can I "deactivate" the duplicates?

 

Thanks for any insights, this seems like an unusual corner case, but I prefer to use the "non-cloud" version and you don't offer a macOS native version (for old Intel machines or new Apple Silicon machines).

You can install the software on up to 3 computers owned by you (at home or at work). You just need to use the Intuit Account. You will get error 603 if installation exceeds over the limit of 3.

 

There is no way to deactivate the License code that is already activated.
