How do i remove or hide the new Discovery Hub from my menu bar for Quickbooks Premier Retail Desktop edition 2021?

I have complained numerous times, to no avail.  I am an accountant, work on over 150 clients through both desktop and online versions and the constant pop ups, including the discovery hub, are crazy.  I own the software, using it for work and get hit with sales messages and tips. I am trying to work...no time for this crap!

I have already turned off pop up messages.  But the discovery hub still interrupts me on each client I work on.  How irritating.  I have worked with Quickbooks for years...and yet no one at Intuit cares enough to listen.  I called in about the discovery hub and yet still, a year later it interrupts every client I open as if it has no idea that I am on the same computer using the same desktop software...

I am having the same issue and don't understand why I paid a lot of money for a software program that I own and am constantly having to close out pop up ads.  It is VERY annoying and aggravating to have to deal with this. The pop up blocker does not work, plain and simple. Quickbooks needs to do better!!

Intuit's Online Push Leaves Complex Businesses Behind

Intuit seems determined to migrate all users to online platforms. However, for businesses with complex needs, even Desktop Enterprise falls short. The online version of QuickBooks, on the other hand, appears designed for extremely simple operations.

Upgrading to a more robust accounting solution, like an ERP, can be prohibitively expensive. Even with Enterprise QuickBooks, businesses may need to spend an additional $50,000 per month on add-ons to manage their operations.

Intuit's reliance on outdated technology limits its ability to provide advanced features. While they claim to maintain desktop software, there's a constant threat of discontinuation, which could severely impact millions of businesses.


By prioritizing online solutions, Intuit risks alienating mid-sized companies that require powerful tools but aren't ready for a full-scale ERP.

I feel like those ads are just one of the many things they do with the desktop software to purposefully annoy you into switching.
