iMovie won't update

I update to Monterey and iMovie won't update. When I click to update it, the app store opens and says I can't update because it was refunded or purchased under a different Apple ID. But I don't have a different Apple ID.

iMac 27″, macOS 12.0

Delete and redownload it. This won't affect its data, but that should be backed up anyway.
