The process is the same for any year (YY). The download should load your 20YY prep file, which will show as Prep.YY into the folder C:\Lacerte\YYtax
For a standalone 2019 it should in C:\Lacerte\19tax as PREP.19

WELL THAT APPROACH LOOKS LOGICAL ENOUGH, BUT THE ROSTER OF AVAILABLE PREP FILE YEARS ENDED WITH 2018, WHICH IS WHAT I WAS USING TO DOWNLOAD THE 2019 PREPFILE? SORRY FOR THE ALL CAPS. ADVANCING AGE, MEANS DECLINING VISION.

Have you paid the current year Fast Path Fee?
The more I know the more I don’t know.

GO TO "MYACCOUNT''; THERE'S A LINK THERE TO DOWNLOAD *ALL* OF YOUR PREP FILES FOR ALL YEARS.
THEN WHEN INSTALLING THE 2019 (?) PROGRAM, IT WILL ASK ABOUT THE PREP FILE & WHERE IT IS LOCATED. POINT TO WHERE YOU DOWNLOADED THE PREP FILE.
BUT IT USUALLY ASKS IF YOU JUST WANT LACERTE TO GO ON-LINE TO GET THE PREP FILE.
*****
MAYBE EXPLAIN A BIT MORE WHAT HAPPENS/GOES WRONG WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO INSTALL THE PROGRAM.
