It's a pleasure to have you in the Community today, @Tim169.
I understand that you have an existing QuickBooks Desktop and you want to utilize it in your new system unit. Yes. QBDT 2017 will work with the latest Windows operating system, which is Windows 11. However, errors may arise after you've installed the program on your workstation since it's an old version of QuickBooks.
To learn more about this, please see this article: QuickBooks Desktop Microsoft Windows 11 Compatibility.
Also, know that older versions of QBDT is more compatible with the later Windows operating system, such as Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10.
Additionally, if you wish to learn more about our program's latest release. Feel free to see this page: What’s new in QuickBooks Desktop 2023.

Thanks for dropping by today, @Tim169. I'll be more than happy to have you here again if you have any additional QuickBooks-related queries. Take care, and have a good one!
