I'll share some guidance to resolve slowness on the QuickBooks program, LauraB77.

 

QuickBooks may run slowly due to the size of your company's data files. As the company file grows in size, the software's performance decreases. 

 

Before we proceed, have you tried downloading the QuickBooks Install DiagnosticTool? If yes, I suggest condensing your data for additional steps to take. This helps decrease your company file data and enhance the software.

 

Here's how:

 

1. Go to the File menu.

2. Select Utilities and choose Condense Data.

3. Click the first radio button as shown below. Take note that the system will advise you of the approximate reduction in your file.

4. Hit Next.

 

For your reference, check out this article for more details: Use the Condense Data utility.

 

You can also try opening a sample file as Fiat mentioned above. This can help us determine if the slow performance are cause by your company file or the QuickBooks software.

 

If the issue persists, you can perform the additional troubleshooting procedure outlined in the following resources below:
