This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Reckon Accounts Plus 2018 upgrade, doesn't remember previous company files..My previous company files is set to 4.
When I first open the programme my last used company file opens.
My "Open Previous Company" tab only shows the one company.
I click on the "Open or Restore Company" tab and open up my other three companies one by one.
They now all appear on my Previous Company Tab.
If I close Reckon Accounts down and reopen only the last used company appears.
How can I get it to remember all four companies on shut down? Note: This conversation was created from a reply on: I've just upgraded to Reckon Personal Plus 2018 and I have two issues..

While this might be an older Knowledgebase article, it outlines a similar scenario to what you've outlined so the 2nd and 3rd solution might be worth reviewing -
Open Previous Company List shows only the last company opened
Have you recently upgraded to Reckon Accounts 2018 and/or has it showed the correct number of files previously?ℹ️ Stay up to date with important news & announcements for your Reckon software! Click HERE for more info.

I had this problem too Steve, using Accounting 2018 with Windows 10 and asked Reckon but they weren't interested. I have to now go into my backed up records and open or restore the second company whenever i want to use it. Similarly, when I go back to the original company I have to open or restore that one.Regrettably, Reckon don't have an answer.0

I also had the problem, which resolved when I selected "Run as Administrator" by right clicking on the desktop ikon. Hope this works for you as well.0

Hello Steve,
With regards to company files and backup files location, if you ensure that they are stored in the "Library" section of the computer which is found at:
c:\Users\Public\Public Documents\Intuit\Quickbooks\Company Files and Quickbooks Backups
then they should all appear in these folders.
You should consider storing the backup files on an external USB Hard Disk drive so that if something happens to the company files they can be recovered from the external drive.

Thanks Rav,
I tried the Run as Administrator and changing the privilege level in the compatibility section.
Now I can't open any files.
I've deselected the "run as administrator" check box in an attempt to revert to what I had previously.
The programme now hangs and then displays the error -6123, cannot find the company file.

Yay. All working now after a reboot, except now I have to answer the question "Do I want to run the programme as an administrator" every time..

On Windows 10, I right clicked the Reckon icon. Clicked Properties followed by the compatibility tab. On that page I selected the Run as Administrator check box. After rebooting the PC the software now remembers my four companies. Unfortunately, the down side , so far is, that when I open Reckon I get asked every time if I want to “Run as Administrator”. If I answer No, the programme closes down, so of course I answer Yes I hope this helps Brian.0

Hi Steve. I didn’t use the compatibility tab. When I right clicked on the shortcut there was an option there to run as administrator. I do not get the continual question that you are getting. Hope this helps.0

That (RC and run as Administrator)worked fine Steve and Glenda. I don't get the request to run as Administrator and now I get both companies available. I wonder why Reckon didn't suggest that instead of telling me I had to live with it? Thanks for the help.1
