I think you've described the required process exactly.
Install the 2024 Audiophile applications,
then install the downloaded the update files for 2025 Audiophile.

If this will create more than three installs, then do be sure to remove a license from one of the systems before registering the 2024 / 2025 version on your Windows 11.

If you get stuck, the help desk will surely be able to assist you to resolve.

Let us know how it goes.
