Hi there, @Yogi.

 

Thank you for posting here in the Community. Allow me to chime in and help you fix the freezing issue in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

There are times updates aren't successful when performing the process. To verify, I recommend checking the release version and ensure you have the latest one installed for the 2021 version.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Open the company file.
  2. Press the F2 button on your keyboard.
  3. View the release version.

 

If it's up-to-date, I recommend you proceed with running the Verify and Rebuild Data utility. The tool helps scan any issues with the company file and self-resolve them on your behalf.

 

To verify data:

 

  1. Click the File tab at the top menu.
  2. Hover your cursor to Utilities.
  3. Select Verify Data

 

To rebuild data:

 

  1. Click the File tab at the top menu.
  2. Hover your cursor to Utilities.
  3. Select Rebuild Data.

 

Since you've mentioned QuickBooks taking a huge amount of memory, I suggest visiting the system requirements. Please make sure your computer specs can run QuickBooks.

 

For more information, please check out this page: System requirements for QuickBooks Desktop 2021.
