There is a big possibility that something is wrong with your Windows OS. At least you have found the solution by using another computer. Thanks for the update.

Install the trial version of QB Desktop 2020 or 2021 to isolate the problem. Contact me in private and we can share the installer file.

Let's perform some troubleshooting steps to log in to your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) file, Derek.

 

If you can't log in due to a username or password issue, you can reset it immediately by selecting the I forgot my password link. I'm also adding this article for the step-by-step instructions: Reset your password for QuickBooks Desktop (US article, but the same resources work for QBDT South Africa).

 

In case the password doesn't work, review your information carefully. Check for any typos and ensure that the info matches what's in CAMPS.

 

However, if the error has no connection with your login credentials (username or password), may I know if you're getting an error message? It'll help me thoroughly investigate the issue and gather the necessary resources to address it effectively. A screenshot would also be very helpful.

 

Once you can open QuickBooks successfully, continue with your business tasks.

 

I suggest getting back to this thread if you need more help accessing your QBDT account. I'll be right here to help.

You should install the trial version as mentioned by Fiat Lux to make sure.

You need the trial version of QB Desktop UK version, not US version.

Hi All ,

A bit of feedback and thabks for all those who helped.

 

I tried loading  version  2021 from Fiat Lux (great help if you need help).and deleting all c++ visual, but I got a error of “ Quickbooks accured a problem , or something on those lines” when trying any Customer File including the sample , and on making a new one.

 

I loaded my old 2019 disk on another machine and it worked , So something ( I think maybe Visual studio or Mysql is blocking the running of Quickbooks)

Thank you for all you help , you guys are great !!!.

All the best over the season ,God bless!!
