Join nowUsed to be able to send paystubs via email within quickbooks 2023 ent. on Windows 11, now when attempting it says ""QuickBooks can't complete current action due to a missing component."" then fails and says "sent 0 of 36"
i have done these things to repair it -
1. close out of outlook and quickbooks and try again
2. check for updates on Win 11, .NET, Outlook, and Adobe.
3. make sure Adobe COM add-on is on in outlook
4. switch outlook back to old version instead of the new outlook.
5. ran "PDF/Printer fix" from tool hub.
6. ran "quickbooks program diagnostic tool" then "PDF/Printer fix" from tool hub and rebooted.
My theory is that QuickBooks is missing a component or it is checking for a dependency it cannot find on my PC.
ussually so long as i made sure the default software was Outlook and Adobe was working properly? it would work.
Seeking fix.
log i do see -

i know that this function is dependant on printer processes when sending from within Quickbooks.
is this simply no longer compatible with 11?
I see all your efforts in getting this fixed, and I appreciate you sharing detailed information about your concern, William. QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise 2023 is compatible with Windows 11. However, specific issues can arise due to various factors, such as missing components or outdated drivers.
Given that you've gone through the troubleshooting steps, I recommend contacting our technical support to fix this as soon as possible. If necessary, they can arrange a screen-sharing session to diagnose the issue.
