Hello, Moemalek. 

 

Thanks for visiting the QuickBooks Community. It’s my priority to get this issue resolved and restore your data from D drive. 

 

Once your backup company file is on an external device like a USB or a hosting service like Box, I'd suggest clicking this article to see the instructions on how to move it to your local hard drive: Move your company files to another computer

 

Once done, you can follow the steps below on how you can restore a backup file to the new updated QuickBooks2021. 

 

  1. In QuickBooks, go to the File menu and click Open or Restore Company.
  2. Click Restore a backup copy, then click Next.
  3. Select Local Backup and click Next.
  4. Browse your computer for your backup company file. It should look like this: [Your company name].qbb.
  5. Select a folder to decide where to save your restored company file. Then, click Open.
  6. Tap Save. If you see any messages about possibly overwriting your data, select the option that best fits your needs. Don't overwrite anything unless you know you want to.

 

If you encounter problems while restoring your backup company file, you can follow the steps provided in this article to fix them: Fix backup company file issues in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

In case you can't find your company file, just follow the steps in this article to locate it: Company file is missing or cannot be found

You should be able to upgrade it easily. Secure a backup copy file on your QBD 2018 (QBB) and restore it on your new QBD 2021.
