I have replied to several posts I made in an effort to find a community answer.

Restoring the backup leads me to a pop up that forces me to upgrade to a new version of QB from Desktop Pro 2018.

I do not want a new update. I want only precisely what I had on the old computer.

Attached is a screenshot of the pop up. Note the only way to not select the pop up and close it is to use the Task Manager to end the entire running QB.
