    Hi @Stephen_10863767

    Can I get a bit more info on what's happening here. Is your list of previous company files only showing the last file opened?

    Hi Rav, thankyou for taking this on.

    Four previous companies are listed, since replacing the hard drive this very handy list has not changed.

    Clicking on a company brings up a message "Could not open file: E:\USERS\Stephen.QDF."

    Companies can still be found scrolling through the list.

    This one has our IT man stumped.

    Hi @Stephen_10863767,

    Just checking, when you mention the "recent file history," are you referring to this section here?

    If not, a screenshot would be greatly appreciated for clarification.

    Thanks,

    Thanks @Stephen_10863767

    Could you also confirm which version of Reckon Accounts Desktop you're using? It looks a bit different from mine. For reference, my recent file history appears like this:
