Hello there, @repareme.
Thank you for reaching out to us. Let's work together in resolving the error 3371 status code 11104 you're getting.
The Error 3371 is caused by a damaged/missing component or an outdated Windows operating system. To resolve this, make sure to update your Windows. An outdated operating system can damage your QuickBooks Desktop company file.
Here are the steps:
You should be able to open your QuickBooks after that, @repareme.
Otherwise, there are more steps detailed in the following articles. I suggest performing them in the order shown. If the first solution fixes the problem, you don't need to proceed with other steps.
Let me know how it goes by adding a comment below. We're both in this together.
thank you HoneyLynn_G for responding. the workaround links you
suggested are all ineffective. Running Windows 10 home w/installed
Updates current, Quickbooks 2018 Pro cannot find it's own license
files that were entered when installed April of 2018. opening the
program suddenly stopped working for no reason I could find. Ran
diagnostic QBInstall
which claimed Quickbooks would now start. NOT! Tried to run repair
from control panel/programs but repair program stopped midway with
error codes -6000 -77, then rolled back repair process. Tried to run
uninstall of QBooks, same error codes and roll back of uninstall
proceedure process. VERY Frustrating!
Thanks again for looking into this. Deleting the eds.ecml file had no effect.

Thanks for the response! I tried all the suggestion on your link, and none of them would let QBooks start. Could it be that QuickBooks 2018 is not compatible with Windows 10 Home edition?
Still getting 3371 status code -11104. Would send pic of desktop error but they keep getting bumped back to my emailbox.

Hello @repareme,
If you're still having an issue with Error 3371, you can check out this article that tells you how to solve it with the QuickBooks Tool Hub.
Fix Error 3371: Could not initialize license properties
Since running the Tool Hub won't fix the issue, I recommend performing a clean install. This helps resolve company file or program errors when opening it.
Once ready, you can now uninstall the program. Let me guide you how:
Once done, you can proceed with reinstalling the software . If the above steps don't fix the issue, please proceed to Solution 2 in this article: Clean install QuickBooks Desktop.
When everything's good, I recommend backing up your files . This way, you can restore them in case of any accidental data loss.
You can count on me if you have some follow-up questions about handling your QuickBooks software. I'll be here to help.
