The same configuration on Windows Server 2016 seemed to work, however. Here's how you fix that: Open the System Properties control panel applet (fastest method is right click Start > Run > type 'sysdm.cpl') Go to the 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 (my install is AccountRight Premier v19, so your executable file may have a different name). Click OK, and watch in amazement as AccountRight can now open MYO files with ease. Re: MYOB Version comparison You also need to be aware that the new versions are very expensive, very slow (especially as the files become larger and can't be purged) and still have a lot of bugs. If payroll is the issue, there are other options that will allow you to keep reporting, without costing you time and money - some are even free. It would be advisable for you to trial the new versions while still running the old version to see how you find it before committing to a subscription. Cheers Robert Re: Spend money window, transactions will not balance Make sure the Tax Inclusive box at the top right is ticked before you enter your total.

You don't have to actually use the subsequent .aba file you create if you don't want to but you should be able to, as long as the Direct Entry User ID is correct for each Bank Account code.
