Has anybody got a solution to reinstall quickbooks pro desktop 2020. Lost my digital copy I bought a few years ago. Still have the key. Mine has become corrupt and searched all 6 hard drives for a copy. I need to either replace my hard drive where it is installed or format the drive and start over. Been having issues with it opening to a 1 inch window tab in windows 10 or it will open with the home screen a 2 inch square and I have to tell it to go to full screen. Been using QB Pro for 15 years about. Do not want to go to a cloud based QB. I need help getting this to reinstall. Any ideas. Intuit does not seem to have a way to get a copy. They do have my key still on my Intuit page.
Reinstalling your QuickBooks Desktop account can help you keep going in managing your business, Magicwood. I'll explain input about this.
In QBDT, if you were able to secure an online backup file with our Intuit Data Protect service, you can reinstall QuickBooks in a compatible system and restore your data by selecting View Backup History from there.
Additionally, you can refer to the information shared by MaryLandT above for a more detailed process when downloading the program.
However, if you're unable to access and acquire the online backup file, it's best to contact our Customer Care Team to help provide real-time assistance in securing your data and guide you on how to restore them efficiently.
