Setting up a New, and restoring an old company on Desktop Version
Good day
I am a long time user of the Desktop version of QB.
My usage is on a personal level, and have no need for a costly monthly subscription.
I paid for, and rightly own my software, and think I should be able to use it as it was advertised.
Yesterday I wanted to set up a new company, but had to sign in for some reason.
I thought this suspicious, and decided to restore an old company and try it that way.
I then got a message prompting me to update to the latest version, but I didn't do that.
I was afraid if I updated, I would be locked out of my current Desktop companies, and forced to go to a monthly subscription, which I do not need, nor want.
The message also said that after the update, I would no longer be able to open older companies, or something along those lines.
My thinking was, if my Desktop QB is no longer supported, why would Intuit want me to update unless there was some ulterior motive to move me to the subscription.
So the bottom line is, can I safely set up a new company in my current Desktop version of QB.
Hoping for the best, and thanks in advance for any help
