I appreciate your patience in returning to this thread, vb5. Allow me to provide additional information about the recent R11 update for QuickBooks Desktop, specifically for Windows Server 2022, and guide you through resolving the issue you're experiencing.

To begin with, let's verify that the update was successfully installed. To do this, here's how:

1. Open QuickBooks Desktop.
2. Press F2 (or Ctrl+1) to open the Product Information window.
3. Check your current version and release.

If an update is available, follow these steps to install it:

1. Click Update available, then choose Install now to update.
2. This may take some time.
3. Open QuickBooks once the installation is complete.

For more detailed instructions, please refer to this article: Update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release.

If the issues persist, let’s try some troubleshooting steps. Start by opening QuickBooks with all windows closed, as having multiple windows open can sometimes lead to unrecoverable errors on startup.

To open your file with all windows closed, follow these steps:

1. Open QuickBooks Desktop.
2. In No Company Open, select your company file.
3. Press and hold ALT on your keyboard, then select Open. Keep holding ALT until the file opens. If prompted to sign in, release ALT, enter your password, and press ALT again before selecting OK.
