Reckon Accounts Premier 2020 won't open.
I was using it yesterday no problems. Today it won't open. Tried logging in as admin. Tried turning off Kaspersky. Comes up with an hourglass for 1 sec, then nothing. It's on a windows 7 computer. What can I do?

Maybe go to the Control Panel and log off all remote sessions, worth a try0

This could be too simplistic, but it often works for me. Did you try turning the computer completely off, leave it for a little while then turn it on again. I have trouble with e-mails from time to time and this is the only thing that works.1

A restart is always a good idea - on any device or appliance0

My husband reminded me that Kaspersky had come up with a malware notification before I included Reckon 2020 as an exclusion (2019 had already been excluded). I think Kaspersky had deleted something and today was the first restart which is why it doesn't work. I will try reinstalling Reckon.0

Yes did that.0

Hi Lorelle - 2 things ... if you have Windows 10 - then try shutting the computer down WHILE HOLDING DOWN the Shift Key until it goes off... this is a full shut down... and fixes 90% of issues... failing that - if it was working yesterday - I would possibly try a system restore? but this requires some technical skills... System Restore (if you have a restore point from when it was last working) - puts the system back to how it was on the date you select... which can be helpful if you have Windows updates that have installed and messed something up?0

No it's Windows 7.

I tried reinstalling over the current one. After that, it started to open but came up with an error. Looks like I will have to uninstall and reinstall. Is there anything I need to be aware of before uninstalling?0
-
System Restore is possibly still the way to go - but if you are not confident, dont attempt it...get a tech to do for you - otherwise make sure that all virus software is turned off before uninstalling and reinstalling.0

I went to uninstall, but it had a choice to repair, so I tried that. I just had to reinstall the tax update afterwards and it all seems to be fixed. Fingers and toes crossed.
