Hi, ShazC 

 

Thanks for your post.

 

I’d recommend uninstalling AccountRight first. Once uninstalled, you will need to delete or rename the program folder on your computer and run the registry cleaner to remove the registry entries for AccountRight. You can locate the AccountRight registry cleaner on our help article Fixing issues uninstalling AccountRight v19. When reinstalling, please ensure that your computer meets the system requirements for your version. You may also disable any antivirus that you have on your computer when reinstalling AccountRight


For further troubleshooting, I would suggest that you do the following for Initialisation Error (on Windows):
 

  • Open the System Properties control panel applet (the fastest method is right click Start >> Run >> type 'sysdm.cpl')
  • Go to the Advanced tab and click on Settings under Performance.
  • Go to Data Execution Prevention >> click Add >> Go to "Myobp.exe" or where you installed AccountRight (this may have a different file name on your end)
  • Click OK

 

Please let us know if you require any further assistance with this. We are happy to assist.

 

Best regards,

Doreen

Thank you Doreen, I will try that solution and let you know how I go. Before I unistall V19.16 can you please confirm that this version is still available to re-install? I realise it is quite an old version but it does everything I need for our self managed super fund record keeping. I don't need any online services and don't want to pay an extra subscription!

Appreciate your advice.
