Hi there, Trishia.

I'm here to share some clarification about updating the QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) version.

Are you asking about the initial user who left a comment on this thread? If that's the case, the user was actually referring to QBDT 2023 and not QBDT 2021, as mentioned in their comment.

Furthermore, it is accurate that QBDT 2021 will become obsolete after May 31, 2024. As a result, certain services like QBDT Payroll, Desktop Payments, live technical support, Online Backup, Online Banking, and others will no longer be accessible to you. Please refer to this article for more information: QuickBooks Desktop service discontinuation policy.

If you desire to proceed with upgrading to a newer version, you can either refer to the detailed steps I previously provided in this thread or consult this article for further guidance: Upgrade QuickBooks Desktop Pro, Premier, or Enterprise.

You can also visit our website for more tips and resources you can use in the future: Self-help articles.

Please let me know if you have more questions about this or anything else. I'll be here to assist. Take care.
