I know it has been quite some time since your post, but you are GENIUS!!

I recently encountered this same problem after upgrading to desktop pro 2023.

As with many others, the hours of frustration are unbearable. 

Thank you so much for sharing your success.

Sure wish QB/Intuit would resolve this issue amongst many others.

I have debated switching software as I was charged twice for the same subscription (pop up offered an upgrade of the same version I had and it allowed me to download the same product twice not realizing I already had a paid subscription) but since it had been too long since I noticed (because we all have time to check our profile weekly), they would not refund me over $400.

I bit the big one and moved on as it is the start of a new year with much to do.

Although, now would probably be an ideal time to switch and start over. 

Thanks again!!
