I am using old accounting package v16 on Windows 11. After upgrading AVG Antivirus, suddenly I have thie error. I have unistalled it twice and then reinstaled v16. But the 'initialising error' does not go away. Please help I need to prepare Jul-Sept 23 BAS.
Hi Rakesh1,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the Community Forum. I hope you find it a wealth of knowledge.
I understand that you receive an initialization error. This error means that something has not started in the background often these can be related to the Windows registry. Note that you need to ensure that your computer meets the system requirements for your version. It is also worth disabling any antivirus that you have on your computer when reinstalling AccountRight. You can also try these steps to fix the issue.
- Open the System Properties control panel applet
- Go to Advanced tab and click on Settings >> under Performance.
- Go to the Data Execution Prevention tab, click Add and navigate to "Myobp.exe" wherever you installed - AccountRight
- Click OK,

Hi Celia
I am actually using Accounting Plus v16. There is no file with name 'Mtobp.exe'. The accounting file I have is 0Atlantis_Education_&_Migrat (myob16.Final.2014).myo. I did add this as suggested, but did not work.
I need help please.

Hi Rakesh1,
Thank you for providing an update on the issue.
I appreciate you in confirming that you are currently using v16 in windows 11. And we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you have experience. In this matter, we cannot say if it will work on windows 11, as it is an unsupported product, there will not be any testing on it with windows 11.
If you need further assistance, please feel free to post again.

Hi Celia
Thanks. I have just downloaded Account Right 2020.20 from an email sent to me in 2020. But I am unable to confirm my company file as it first asks for updating to the latest version of Account Right and then it asks for a new serial number or subscription once I downloaded the latest version. Please help me confirm the company file from old v16 so I can use the Account Right. The phone support is not working please.
