Updating your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) will depend on which subscription you choose, KJW_85614. Let me discuss this further.

If you have QBDT Pro Plus, Premier Plus, Mac Plus, or Enhanced Payroll, please note that new subscriptions for QBDT 2024 are no longer available in the United States, except for QBDT Enterprise products. The deadline for new subscriptions was September 30, 2024.

To ensure a smooth transition to the new version without compatibility issues, consider creating a backup file first. Then, go to QBDT Downloads & Updates to install the best plans for your needs. Afterward, you can restore your file on your new computer.
