DHT11 sensor help

Is there any reason the DHT11 sensors from the recently discontinued Argon Starter Kits shouldn't work with the Grove Temperature and Humidity library 1.0.7?
I just received my starter kits and have tried 3 DHT11 sensors from 3 different kits with the dht11-demo.ino from that library to no avail (fails to read from the sensor).
I've checked other posts, and Googled, and can't find a solution.
I was finally able to get the sensor to work with the code in the post
" Photon 2 - DHT11 Sensor and Reading Values".
Just wondering why the Grove library doesn't seem to work.
My Argon has OS 6.1.1
