Hello there, SuperBatMan,

I understand how important it is to keep your data safe and secure. QuickBooks Desktop works best with Internet Explorer. The connection from IE to QBDT is guaranteed to be safe.

For the meantime, I suggest visiting QuickBooks Blog. This is where we share recent happenings and future developments, such as updates to newly added features. Here's the link: The QuickBooks Blog.  

For refund requests, I recommend contacting our QBDT support They will be able to provide you options. To reach the support team, open your QuickBooks and press the F1 key and then click Contact Us.

Let me know if you have other questions.
