Hello, I purchased a QBooks Desktop Pro 2024 non subscription from a retailer like you suggested but after installing it on 5/22/2024 Intuit kept sending me pop-up screen saying my Qbooks version will expire in 7 days and will be in read-only mode. I contacted Intuit and they insisted the my new license was not valid and illegal although I downloaded in through Inuit website with key and license number being accepted and my Qbooks was working fine. Intuit insisted that I had to purchase 2024 version for $695.00 per year and stuck with a yearly subscription at $695.00. This is different than what I am reading in your post and find it hard to understand how Intuit can charge subscription fees every year at such a high price. I hope you can help me clear this up
