    Upgraded to latest version of Parallels Desktop18 for Mac on my new M4 Mac Mini, and my existing version 18 license refuses to activate without upgrading. I paid for version 18, I've installed version 18, I expect to be able to use version 18. Parallels, why do I need to upgrade?

    Screenshots attached for reference.

    Within 30 minutes of posting I now have 2x version 18 licenses/keys available to select, and the new one allows me to successfully activate Parallels Desktop for Mac 18.3.3. Parallels I can only assume somebody read this post and took action, so thank you. For anybody else facing this same issue, I recommend reaching out via this forum.

    Screenshots showing 2x licenses available, and successful activation of the new license.
