It's a pleasure to have you in the Community today, @Tim169.

 

I understand that you have an existing QuickBooks Desktop and you want to utilize it in your new system unit. Yes. QBDT 2017 will work with the latest Windows operating system, which is Windows 11. However, errors may arise after you've installed the program on your workstation since it's an old version of QuickBooks.

 

To learn more about this, please see this article: QuickBooks Desktop Microsoft Windows 11 Compatibility.

 

Also, know that older versions of QBDT is more compatible with the later Windows operating system, such as Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10.

 

Additionally, if you wish to learn more about our program's latest release. Feel free to see this page: What’s new in QuickBooks Desktop 2023.

 

You can also check this page for reference if you want to install the program to your system: Install QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Thanks for dropping by today, @Tim169. I'll be more than happy to have you here again if you have any additional QuickBooks-related queries. Take care, and have a good one!

What sort of "errors" might occur with Quickbooks 2017 if upgrading to Windows 11?

I have 26 years of QB data on our servers and don't want to rely on cloud subscriptions going forward.

I do think Intuit should make "TRUE" Desktop (downloadable) versions to those who have been LIFELONG clients and users of the software and want to continue in that manner.

You can still run QB Desktop 2017 on Windows 11. However, there's a good chance that when you reinstall the license, their servers will block your reactivation attempt. You'll need to use the trial version as a workaround.

Try to install it in Win 8 compatibility mode.
