Thanks for joining this thread, @wgilliamRN72. 

I'll share some steps to help speed the performance of your QuickBooks Desktop. 

Just to confirm, did you already perform the steps outlined in the article provided by @Anonymous above? If not, I suggest you to do so. 

First, please make sure that your computer meets the minimum requirements to run the program. The program's performance decreases as the size of the company file increases.

If you have a large file and still experiencing performance issues, you can reduce your file's overall size by using the Condense Data utility. You'll first need to create a backup of your company file since the steps below are irreversible.

Here's how: 

1. Go to the File menu at the top. 
2. Select Utilities. 
3. Choose Condense Data. 
4. Select the first option during the condense process. Note that the system will advise you of the approximate reduction in your file.
5. Click Next. The Working on your file now window will appear. 
6. Click Close once the process is complete. 

If the first option doesn't work, you can perform the other solutions through this article: Fix QuickBooks Desktop Performance Issues. 

Stay in touch with me how things go after performing the steps above, @wgilliamRN72. 

Please drop me a line below if there's anything else you need. I'll gladly help.
