Many users report that QuickBooks crashes right after a Windows update. If this is happening to you, it’s likely because of conflicts between the updated Windows and QuickBooks Desktop files or settings.

Start by updating QuickBooks Desktop to the latest version. Intuit regularly fixes compatibility issues caused by system updates. If the problem began after a specific Windows update, consider rolling back that update temporarily to check if it improves stability.

Use the QuickBooks Tool Hub, especially the Program Diagnostic Tool, which can fix common installation-related crashes. Also, check if Windows features like .NET Framework or MSXML were changed by the update, as they are crucial for QuickBooks to run smoothly.

Temporarily disable any third-party antivirus or firewall. These programs can become too aggressive after system updates and may block QuickBooks from starting or working correctly.

You can also run QuickBooks in compatibility mode for an earlier version of Windows. Right-click the QuickBooks icon, select Properties, and then go to the Compatibility tab.

If nothing else works, perform a clean install of QuickBooks Desktop to remove any damaged files.
