Unable to Activate Fences. Error code: -11

I have a new computer and am trying to reload fences.  My previous product was Fences V 2.0.  I purchased the v 4.0.  I cannot activate either one of them.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need more information on your system and issue.

  1. Your new computer is running Windows 7,8,10 or 11?
  2. If you on Windows 11, I believe Fences v2 is not compatible in it.
  3. Error code:-11 appear while installing v2 or v4?

My company computer is still on Windows 10. I downloaded the Fences5_setup_sd.exe and it installs without a problem.  I previously had Version 4.  Fences 5 will not accept the subscription product key.

Fences 5 will not accept Fences 4 activation code. Did you purchased Fences 5 activation key?

Thank you,

Yes, I purchased the Fences 5 and have the valid key for the subscription. I used paypal to pay for the software, however and it uses a different email address than my Stardock email.  So I have the problem of purchasing with one email but activating with another email.  Thank you for helping me troubleshoot.

I have merged the accounts.  I have also moved the registrations.  I thought that would help.  Everything under the one email.   Alas, I still can't activate the software.  I have uninstalled and re-installed but that didn't work either after the merge.  Do I need to cancel my subscription, uninstall and start over?
