I have just upgraded to Reckon Account Plus 2014, and I've noticed that QuickBooks Plus 2011-12 and QuickBooks Plus 2010-11 are still installed.  Should I manually uninstall these programmes, or is it best to leave them?

    Hi Janine,

    To free up hard disk space I would suggest uninstalling.

    Cheers,
    Andrew

    Further to this it is always a good idea to uninstall older versions of the software before upgrading to the newer release. Just make sure to back up your data file.
    Cheers,

    For advanced users we would also recommend a clean uninstall of older programs prior to installing a new version. Instructions can be found here

    For the super advanced, a free tool such as Revo Uninstaller will delete windows registry entries for Reckon ensuring a clean installation of Reckon Accounts without any legacy files / registry entries remaining.

    Please see a certified Reckon Accredited Partner or our technical support team if you have any concerns.?
