Unable to initialize Steam & Please purchase/redeem Elite Dangerous to continue.

Hi I've tried searching within the Issues and didn't seem to quite find the same problem(s) I'm facing. I hope someone would be willing to take a moment and possibly help and explain to me where I'm going wrong or how I messed up. Ultimately I'm trying to access Horizons 4.0 as an Odyssey player. The following are the steps I've tried with no luck.

Steam is open
Attempted to use both /steam and /frontier argument
Different error messages when using the methods mentioned above
Version 0.7.2 min-ed-launcher

When I use the /steam "Username" in properties it gives the following error(s);

However when I decide to use the frontier in properties it states;

So one says I can't initialize to steam while the other says I don't own ED even though I know I do. I'm sorry if this is something so small or if I missed a step but I just can't seem to get it working. Any input would be appreciated.
