If you move your os to a new drive, remember to deauthorize your device before attempting to log in after installing helix native and opening it from your daw.

Have you been able to get it to work with 3.15? it seems to startup and login properly for me but then just sits without going into the full application. I'm using wine 7.0

I have, yes. I since moved to manjaro but I don’t thing that should make a difference. I do believe I used a similar approach to the one above 🤔
