Suddenly my powerpoint kicked me out and says for me to edit my project I'm working on I need to sign into Microsoft 365 and I did sign in with the account that I originally got the Powerpoint, Word and Excel from and it tells me I can only view so I cannot edit or create any power point presentations and I have work to do.
This is after I did the Sonoma update and now I cannot use powerpoint! This is so annoying
I can use word but why is it telling me this on powerpoint
Under the about Powerpoint I am using version 16.18 but under license it says not activated.
My word one says Microsoft 365 subscription. But why is this happening `all of a sudden when I have been using powerpoint on my mac for 2 years now
Processes in Microsoft 365 for setting up Office apps, redeeming product keys, and activating licenses.

Hi
Somehow your license files got messed up. Remove them, then restart your Mac. You'll be prompted to sign in when you follow up by opening an Office application.
