Q2012 --> Q2015 + Win7

Apr 30, 2015 5 Replies

Well, it's that time of year... Sunset of Q2012. I have now migrated from Q2012 to Q2015.



AND along with getting forced off Q2012, I was also forced to migrate from XP to Win7, AND because of Win7 not having Outlook Express I was also forced to migrate from OE to Thunderbird for email and newsgroups.



SO - thank you Intuit -


You should of used Windows Live mail, it's part of the OS

I had installed WLM - but then I still needed a Newsgroup Reader.. so... went with Thunderbird - and works well for me

Windows Live Mail ALSO handles UseNet (newsgroups) just fine, thank you.

I use WLM 2008 to replace OE when I upgraded and it comes with a newsreader. Works great as a news and mail client.

Must have missed it somehow when I initially tested things on Win7. Oh well.... running Thunderbird now - seems ok - my daily software world has been distilled down to... Q2015, Firefox, & ThunderbirdBird (email + newsreader) Have lots of other pgms that I seldom use daily...
