Resetting the server seems essential to you right now, Phyllis, as it will help you perform your business tasks using QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) more efficiently without any delays. Let's work together to achieve your goal.

 

If you are referring to the process of resetting the server that stores your company file, please be aware that we do not have access to perform this task. Thus, I recommend reaching out to your IT personnel who have the appropriate access and technical expertise to assist you with resetting your server.

 

On the other hand, if you are referring to the payroll update, follow the steps below:

 

  1. Close your company files and QuickBooks Desktop.
  2. Hover over the Windows Start menu.
  3. Use the search function to locate QuickBooks Desktop.
  4. Right-click on the QuickBooks Desktop icon and choose Run as administrator.
  5. When the No Company Open screen appears, navigate to the Help menu and select Update QuickBooks Desktop.
  6. Under the Options tab, select Mark All and then click Save.
  7. Mark the Reset Update box in the Update Now tab.
  8. Click the Get Updates button.
  9. Wait for the Update Complete message to confirm the update is finished, then close QuickBooks and open it again.
  10. If prompted to install the update, click Yes.

 

After installation is complete, restart your computer to finalize the update process.

Furthermore, you can generate and execute your payroll in QBDT to ensure that all updated information is accurately reflected in your payroll records.

 

Moreover, if you meant something else, feel free to add further details in the comment section.
