How to force an internet update when EasyACCT won't update

If the latest internet update is already installed, the IU can't be downloaded again. The problem usually presents itself when:

• The program says it is updated, but a later version is known to be available.
• To reinstall anything missed on a prior install.
• A SUTA module wasn't installed with an earlier release and needs to be installed to process payroll or quarterly forms. 

Follow these steps to force an internet update for EasyACCT:

1. Leave EasyACCT open.
2. In the Windows search box in the taskbar, type "Run" and press Enter to open the Run app.
3. In the Open: field, type in C:\EASYW\EZSYSW.INI.
   • If you're using the Information Return System, type in C:\IRSYYYY\IRSSysW.INI instead. YYYY represents the 4-digit tax year.
4. The file will open in Notepad. Find this Section: 
   • [Updates] 
   • SDPStatus=1
   • ForcedIU=N
5. Change the ForcedIU=N to ForcedIU=Y.

6. From the File menu, select Save and close Notepad.
7. Try the internet update again.
8. Select the components of the program needed.
   • This .INI file will revert to N after the update.
