All workflows and settings reset after update (1.74.3) + License Issue

I have searched the forum, and while this was asked about a year ago by another user, it was unanswered.

We are using Render.com and an npm installation. We have a persistent disk volume and set our environment variables to the proper volume, hosts, etc.

N8N works perfectly; however, when we upgraded to the latest version, we lost all of our workflows, data, etc. In addition, the license activation returns an error.

“Failed to activate license: activation failed because SDK was not yet initialized”

Finally, none of the n8n shell/CLI commands work; I tried n8n license:clear, but the command isn’t found. I tried to npm install n8n, and it doesn’t work to bring the CLI command to life. I used the shell and the Execute command workflow node.
