Hi there, @thamie, I’m here to help you successfully install your QuickBooks Desktop Pro.
First off, what specific error did you encounter? This will help me provide a targeted solution.
In the meantime, make sure that your license number and product code match.
If you bought QuickBooks Desktop from our website: Check your purchase confirmation email for your license number and product code. If you can't find them, you can sign in to your Customer Account Management Portal to get them.
If you bought QuickBooks from a retail store: Look for the sticker on the original CD envelope.
Download the QuickBooks Tool Hub (version 1.6.0.8). Save it in an accessible location like your Downloads folder or desktop.
Run the downloaded QuickBooksToolHub.exe file and follow the prompts to install. Agree to the terms during installation.
Once installed, double-click the QuickBooks Tool Hub icon on your desktop to launch it. If you don't see it, search for QuickBooks Tool Hub via Windows search and open it.
Then, establish a New Windows Administrator:
Create a new Windows user with administrative privileges.
Log out of your current Windows session and sign in with the new admin user credentials.
Before wrapping up, please note that we have removed your product key and registration number to safeguard your privacy and security.
Feel free to update me on your progress by leaving a comment below. Just mention my name, and I’ll be glad to assist further, ensuring you can install and run your software smoothly.
