My desktop crashed and at present we're waiting to see what we can recover. I can't seem to get an actual person at QB to help me reinstall QB on a new computer and recover my files. I have QB Plus Annual subscription PRO, and I have online file back up. Any help is appreciated. I can't get anyone to chat with me on support for desktop. The online chat support answered but gave me an incorrect link for help with desktop. I'm super irritated that I can't talk to someone in support to walk me through this.
Thanks,

Yes, it will, @Gunny79.
All we need to do is prepare the product and license number of your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) software. Then, download your version of QBDT.
Once done, enter the product and license number. For the complete details, you can refer to the steps and links shared by my colleague FritzF above.
