None of the suggestions work for me, for one thing I'm using a Mac and installed and run as an administrator, I don't use OneDrive, I cannot understand why USB devices (which in my case is highly variable) or OS updates should affect activations. Reauthenticating is one thing in these cases, consuming a whole additional machine activation is unacceptable!
I managed to finish my 2024 taxes, but I now want to work on estimating 2025 taxes. How can I escape the activation trap?
