    I can see the new version of Reckon on my computer but do not know how to activate it!! I had already deleted the previous version.

    Hi @trishrouse1

    Since you’ve already installed the new version and removed the old one, follow these steps to activate it properly:

    1. Launch Reckon

    • Open the new Reckon Accounts program from your desktop or Start menu.

    2. Start the Activation Process

    • On first launch, Reckon should automatically prompt you to activate the software.
    • If you don’t see the prompt, go to Help → Activate/Upgrade in the menu.

    3. Enter Your Serial Number / License Key

    • You will need your product serial number or license key, usually found:
      • In your purchase email from Reckon
      • On the product packaging (if you bought a physical copy)
      • In your Reckon account online
    • Enter the serial number exactly as provided.

    4. Connect to the Internet

    • Reckon will need an internet connection to verify your license.
    • If your firewall or antivirus blocks the program, temporarily allow Reckon through.

    5. Confirm Activation

    • After entering the serial number and verifying online, Reckon should display a message confirming activation successful.
    • You can now open or create your company file.

    6. Open Your Company File

    • If you still have your old company file (.QBW), go to File → Open or Restore Company and select it.
    • If you don’t have a backup, make sure you restore from your most recent backup to avoid losing data.

    I hope this helps you activating your new version of Reckon!
