Not enabled to start Lightroom 6 on Windows 11

When I start Lightroom 6 (from year 2017) on my new computer it asks to sign up. I tried to use the scan and I use the: //to.adobe.######
I get an e-mail with the verification code and enter it then password insertion and I am signed in. I accept the software licensing agreement.

After that nothing happens.
When I start Lightroom again, it asks to sign up again.... I never get out of this loop!

Is there an alternative way to get Lightroom working again?

    You'll need to use the off-line activation procedure described by 'kglad' in below linked thread

      And indeed that has activated Lightroom. It was troublesome.

      I tried it first on my iPhone and Safari, and this didn't worked for me (too small screen?).

      Then I tried it with my iPad and Firefox, and now I saw what I have to do: enter the response code and next to it the enter serial number of my Lightroom.
      And there is my responce code.


      Many, many thanks!!!
