Are you still able to run QBD 2019 on your machine without any issue?

Hi there!  Thank you for your response. However, I tried to download my version of Quickbooks and it was unsuccessful. I purchased the download disc from Office Depot, so it is not registered under my email and the download manager only shows the previous versions I already use because it is tied to my email address. When I attempted to put the license number in, it said no product was found for my email address. 

I am able to use QB 2019 without any issues. However, support is being terminated in May and I have to upgrade

Consider installing the trial version for QBD 2022 to make sure it works on your machine.

In your first post you said there was a problem about "installing the 2007 Office Main Interop Assemblies". That's why I recommend using the trial version for QBD 2022 to be sure as the first step.

Open your file on QBD 2019, create the backup file, open QBD 2022, restore the backup file.

Hey there, @jayendra01.

Great job in installing your QuickBooks Desktop Premier 2022 version! One more step and you're ready to continue running your business.

When upgrading to a newer desktop version, you also need to upgrade your company files. To do that, prep your company file beforehand by following these steps:

1. Open your original version of QuickBooks. Then open the company file you want to upgrade.
2. Press F2 to open the Product Information window.
3. Look in the File Information section. Note where you save your company file on your computer.
   
   
4. Run the Rebuild Tool for your company file. This preps it for the upgrade.

Once done, convert your file in your newer version. Keep in mind that you won't be able to open the file in your QuickBooks 2019 after the upgrade.

1. Make sure all users log out of your company file.
2. Open your new version of QuickBooks Desktop.
3. Click Open or Restore Company. 
4. Select Open a company file, then Next. If you have a backup company file (QBB) instead of a company file (QBW), choose Restore a backup copy and then Local backup.
5. Browse your computer for your company file. Click it and select Open. If you can't find your company file, open the Windows Start menu and then File Explorer. Search for your company file by name or the .qbw file extension. If you still can't find it, make sure it's not hidden.
6. Sign in to your company file as an admin user.
7. Before you upgrade, QuickBooks automatically creates a backup of your existing company file. You can select Change this default location to save the backup in a specific folder.
8. Select Update Now to start the upgrade.
9. When QuickBooks finishes, select Done.

That's it! After that, make sure to update QuickBooks so you have the latest software release. You'll also want to check out this article to learn how you can use the features included in the 2022 version to benefit your business: What’s new in QuickBooks Desktop 2022.
