Upgrading from Desktop Pro 2022 to complimentary subscription of Desktop Pro 2024 only gives me the ONLINE option

Hi, I received an email with the following message: 

QuickBooks Desktop 2022 will be discontinued on May 31, 2025.

As a QuickBooks Desktop Plus subscriber, upgrades to QuickBooks Desktop Plus 2024 are included in the price of your subscription and at no additional charge.  If you are still using QuickBooks Desktop 2022, you must update your software to QuickBooks Desktop 2024 prior to May 31, 2025. This will allow you to continue using services such as Desktop Payroll, Desktop Payments, and online bank feeds as well as access to the latest security, product updates, and customer support.  Get more info about our service discontinuation policy here. Follow the instructions above to get your complimentary upgrade now. 

=================================================================

I have followed every instruction and step given, and STILL am only given the ONLINE option, which I do not want.  I want to stick with the Desktop Pro version.  Please help. I have NEVER been given just the option to "upgrade now?"

Thanks.

Thank you for your interest in upgrading your QuickBooks Desktop 2022 to the 2024 Pro version, @Breesgal. I'll be glad to walk you through other ways of doing so while ensuring you get the most out of your purchase.
 
Let's change your one-time messages since you don't get a prompt to upgrade. I'll show you how:
 
  1. Go to Edit, and then select Preferences.
  2. Click General, and then choose My Preferences.
  3. Tap Bring back all one time messages, and then OK.
  4. Close, then reopen QuickBooks. Check to see if the prompt to upgrade your QuickBooks subscription pops up.
 
You can also use the Discovery Hub to advance your QBDT account to a newer version. Proceed to this article for complete steps: Upgrade QuickBooks Desktop Pro, Premier, or Enterprise. Otherwise, I recommend contacting our QBDT Sales team for further assistance.
 
See this article to learn what you need to know: QuickBooks Desktop service discontinuation policy.
 
Once everything is settled, check out these resources for the complete info about the enhancements and operating system included in this version and edition:
 
 
You can post anytime if you need more guidance. I'm always right here whenever you need additional information about moving from one product to another. Have a great weekend ahead.

Thank you for your reply!  I have already tried the "show one time messages" and nothing.  No upgrade option; occasional UPDATES, but nothing saying "upgrade".  Same with Discovery Hub - only takes me to ONLINE options.   Not sure where to go now.

Before installing the latest version, ensure you create a backup of your data and that your computer meets the system requirements.

 

Then, proceed with these steps:

If you're on one computer with no network

  3. Choose Custom and Network OptionsThis lets you install the new version in a different location and keep prior versions installed. 
  4. Hit Next, then Install.
  5. Once done, select Open QuickBooks


If you're on a dedicated server or workstation, check out this article: Install QuickBooks Desktop. It also includes further information about the installation method.
