Questa FPGA Starter Edition Licensing Issue

I installed Questa FPGA Starter Edition and I cannot get a license for it. I have registered for the licensing site, but I still get "Account Required".

Hi

You may request the Questa Sim Starter Edition free license here https://licensing.intel.com/

1) Go to Sign up for Evaluation or Free licenses

2) Select Questa*-Intel® FPGA Starter Edition SW-QUESTA

3) # of Seats is always 1

4) Check the T&C box

5) Click Get License button

The license will be sent to email that you register with

Well getting the license file worked, but after setting my LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable (to it's path in C:\ on my Win11 box), I still get the same Fatal License Error that I got before. I attached the screenshot. I think it's pretty dumb that the application won't even launch.
