What would cause PAD to allow only one running flow?

Is there a limit to how many flows can be running at once? I have flows for my account running on two different systems, and on one, I can run every flow I have (3-4 of them) at once, but on another, it's only allowing me just one flow to run (everything else is grayed out/inaccessible until I stop the running flow). Is it a setting? Am I missing something? (unsure which label to choose!)

You tagged it with "unattended" so I am going to presume you are referring to unattended flows.

On regular Windows computers (10/11) unattended desktop flows will run sequentially, not concurrently. You can schedule multiple flows, but they will enter a queue and wait for the current flow to finish. If you have a machine group setup with multiple computers, it is possible to load balance the flows between the computers.

This also depends on your licensing. You need the unattended rpa add-on for each running "bot". It will run a singular instance of a given RPA process. If you need more concurrent instances, you’ll need additional licenses.

It's tagged "unattended" because I really did not know what else to tag it as with the given tags. There is no "misc" tag. Each flow I have running is based on shortcuts, and on my desktop, I'm able to have 4 running simultaneously, but on my laptop, it's only running one. Even if I have zero running on the desktop, I still can only run one on the laptop. So, again, I'm at a complete loss.
