Let's get this sorted out for you, mary4054.
I'm here to provide the help you need and get past the TLS 1.2 warning message in QuickBooks Desktop.
Once done, try opening QuickBooks Desktop again to test it.
I'm confident this helps you get past the warning message when opening the software. Keep me posted if you have any additional questions, as I'm always here to help. Wishing you continued success.

This what worked for me in the same situation when I got the same error or warning message
"Your Quickbooks does not have enough privileges to enable TSL 1.2. You
must run quickbooks in elevated mode to allow using TSL 1.2"
:
Make sure you are logged into Windows 10 as an Administrator and NOT as a Standard User (am NOT talking
about how you log into QuickBooks). If you are not logged in Windows 10
as an Administrator, that are you running QuicksBooks as a Windows 10
Administrator (by right-clicking the QuickBooks icon and selecting "Run
as Administrator"). That seems to be what QuickBooks is complaining
about - that you do not have Windows 10 Administrator privileges.
In
our office, I have QuickBook Users on Windows 10 PC's, but I do not
want the employees to have Windows Administrative Privileges to keep
them from messing up their computers.
For what it is worth, when I ran into the "elevated mode" warning/problem as a Standard User, I ran QuickBooks Enterprise once with
Windows 10 Administrator Privileges (and did not receive the warning),
and then ran it again as a Windows 10 Standard User (non-Administrator),
and have not seen the warning again since 2/9/18 on two Windows
10 PC's . I don't know if this fixed it, or if it is a temporary fix, or
QB put out another update unbeknownst to us to unbugger the previous
one. Will keep you posted.
Thank you Nfern...that worked perfect!
Hi! I am running QuickBooks Pro 2016 on a Windows 10 computer and have the same issue as mary4054. We have a 2 user version; and are experiencing the issue on only one of the computers. I have run updates, exited and restarted QuickBooks, made sure TLS 1.2 was checked off(which it was); restarted QuickBooks again; after verifying IE had TLS 1.2 checked off and STILL the warning comes up regarding elevated mode.
The warning is in a box titled "QuickBooks TLS Compliance" The warning reads: "This version of QuickBooks requires TLS 1.2 for secure communication. You must perform the following actions to allow QuickBooks to use TLS 1.2: Internet Explorer Administrative Privileges-Your QuickBooks does not have enough privileges to enable TLS 1.2. You must run QuickBooks in elevated mode to allow using TLS 1.2" This is followed by instructions on how to run QuickBooks in elevated mode.
Also, when I run Update QuickBooks; I continue to get an "Install Pending" message under File Doctor that states that "New files have been downloaded for this update. You must exit and restart QuickBooks to complete this update" I don't know if this is related to the other issue; but I have exited and restarted QuickBooks twice and it continues to say "Install Pending....."
I don't know if one has anything to do with the other; but I welcome any help in getting this straightened out. Should I go ahead and run QuickBooks in "elevated mode"? (I don't know what that is; which makes me uncomfortable to begin with.
Please help if anyone knows what else can be done to stop the TLS warning/elevated mode message; especially since TLS 1.2 IS checked off!
Thank you,

Hey there, @seasidefuel.
The troubleshooting steps you’ve performed should fix the QuickBooks TLS Compliance error. To determine where the issue is stemming from, I’ll have to review the system configuration.
I’m unable to perform this process without asking for your personal data. Since the safety of the account is our top priority, I recommend contacting our Technical Support Team.
They can perform in-depth troubleshooting steps in a secure space and make sure you can use QuickBooks seamlessly.
Please know you’ll still be able to use QuickBooks 2016 when performing any accounting processes. If you have any of the add-on services (Payroll, Technical Support, Payments, and Online Banking), these options will no longer work.
Check out the following article to view the complete list of affected features. It also provides an overview of the upgrade options: QuickBooks Desktop service discontinuation policy and upgrade information article.
For other concerns about QuickBooks, leave a comment below. I'm always here to assist. Have a good one.
Hi again Rasa-LilaM!
I had already commented about this script error issue in general in another thread; but at the time didn't have the exact code. I have since gotten it; and happen to notice you had responded and helped me in the past; so I am replying for help on this new subject; since you had said to use the link to ask for any other future help.(which is greatly appreciated!)
I have NEVER had script errors; until yesterday(February 10, 2020) and suddenly I keep getting the same one. I have tried researching the community; but there is no mention of a specific script error; and the general script error fixes have been no help. If this is a harmless issue; then I won't be too worried about it. I just don't want to cause our accountant to get script errors when I give her our Portable Company File; which is due today!(of course it is; and I had to have a issue the night before it's due; after all this time-Ugh!) We also have a second office; where my assistant uses our QuickBooks 2016 Desktop Pro 2 user version; and I don't want to have script errors show up on our other computer; but I fear that's what we're in for since I've been at this since 5:00pm and it's almost 3:00am. If you have any other suggestions on scipt error issues; please reply; as I've tried everyting I found.(though I didn't find anything on that specific error) Just an FYI we never work on the computers at the same time; since we use a thumb drive to backup and restore each time; and this method has worked for us since the start of our small business 6 years ago. I always keep an extra backup on a separate thumb drive. I mention this; since I had been told by QuickBooks support; when we had it, that it's not possible to do it this way; and that we had to use a cloud based option.(Obviously, this person had no idea what they were talking about)
I appreciate any help you may have. Thank you.
Thanks for getting back to us, @seasidefuel.
