    After I completed the Parallels 26.1.2 upgrade. Quickbooks Desktop Pro will no longer load files.
    Running a Windows 11 VM.
    Apple M4 Pro

    Anyone have this problem or have an idea what changed within the recent upgrade that would have broke things? The Quickbooks app loads fine, it's loading the actual QB files that no longer functions. Regardless of file location.

    Rolling back to the previous Parallels version (if you have Time Machine or a backup) -- that solved it momentarily for me.

    What Parallels version did you have running before the upgrade?
    Just reinstall that version and check if Quiickbooks runs again. Don't forget to reboot the Mac. What QB version (year) do you have running (I am just curious)?
    I am using QB Prem 2020 on my MBP M1.

    I use Timemachine... What did you have to do to rollback to the previous version?
    My short term hack was purchase a PC laptop. It was a pain in the a** but I needed to get working!
    I'm running QB Desktop Pro 2024
