Every time I update 2021 Professional Proseries they download, but they won't install. Is anyone else having the same problem

they should be installing automatically in the background.

Top menu bar Information > Logs > Updates Log

See whats been installed.

Sometimes you need to go through the PC's menu(Windows icon) on the bottom left and click on PS 2021 Tools Repair updates. Mine just worked.

So your Updates Log shows NO updates being installed?

The forms youre hoping to be ready might not be included in the update.

@MMURUA I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with updating your program.

Could you please send us some of your log files? 

Go to the Help menu and select Send Logs. That will create a ProSeriesLogs.zip file on your desktop.

Please send that file to proseries_engineering@intuit.com so we can investigate your issue.

I had this exact same issue.  I called support and was on the phone with them for quite some time.  Noting worked.  Eventually they had me re install from scratch by doing the following and it worked.

  1. Close ProSeries.
  2. Open File Explorer.
  3. Browse to the install folder for ProSeries:
    • For ProSeries Stand Alone: C:\ProWinYY
    • For ProSeries Network: C:\ProWinYY
    • For ProSeries Basic: C:\BasWinYY
  4. Right-click on the 32bit folder and choose Rename.
  5. Add OLD to the end and press enter to rename this to 32bitOLD.
  6. Right-click on the Forms folder and choose Rename.
  7. Add OLD to the end and press enter to rename this to FormsOLD.
  8. Sign in to My Account.
  9. From the Dashboard click Download 20YY.
  10. Run the install file to replace these two folders.
