I’ll wait until the dust settles.
The the only time I authorized Notion 6 was on my 2010 iMac, four computers ago. It opens fine today, knows where all my old files are and pops my license info when I click on Activation. This is the first time I've opened it on my Mac Studio that I purchased in 2023.

As I mentioned before, I used Apple's Migration Assistant to bring it over each time, either from the older Mac or a Time Machine backup. The license screen has never appeared asking for re-authorization. However, when I clicked on Receive Licenses on the Software Activation screen, it connected and gave me a Success message. I've not tried it on my Tahoe test Volume yet.

This tells me the license file is stored locally and transferred each time. It would surprise me if the same is not true for the PC and once you know the correct file name and paths, restoring it to a new machine should be easy.
