Hello James M4,
I installed the QuickBooks Tool Hub, run the diagnostics in the Installation Issues section, restarted my computer - and I still get the same error.

Hello JamesM4,
My issues with the latest update is not resolved yet. I used the QB by clicking on "update later", until few days ago, when I noticed a note saying that I only have 2 more tries to use the Update Later. Then I called Intuit support and spent 55 min. with a very nice support guy helping me to resolve the problem. One of the solutions was to uninstall my QB 2024 and then install again. But the "uninstall" did not work. So I was told to call Microsoft, because apparently "Microsoft is blocking QB to be uninstalled". The interesting thing is, that I still had the QB 2020 on my computer and I was able to uninstall this version without any problems, so I am not sure if it is a Microsoft problem or not.
Install the trial version. Did you encounter the same problem?
