this is a legit question, but why can't you run that program through wine? does it need a windows account validation step or something or does wine simply not work for that program?

I… guess I never thought of that.

I use MacOS (I know, I know), but I didn’t realize I could use WINE on Mac. I haven’t had a chance to investigate yet if I can make this work for me, but this was a good suggestion. I have this on my short list of stuff to figure out. Thank you!
