While many clients are using Qxpress on Windows 8 successfully, we do have a group of installs that are not working as designed in a Windows 8 environment.  While we are continuing to research the root cause of the install issues, we do not have a resolution availible at this time.  We are currently unable to list Windows 8 as an approved/supported platform as a result.  

We have completed testing for QuickBooks 2013 and also have found a permanent solution to the Windows update issue. All existing clients have been emailed the steps to resolve the issue and a tech article is available as well to walk you through the steps.

Due to Hurricane Sandy our NJ office is closed Monday and Tuesday (10/29 and 10/30).  We do, however, have support staff working remotely during this time to assist in the event you have a crucial issue requiring technical assistance.  We will be checking voicemail periodically, but we do encourage you to instead submit your requests for assistance to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

We are proud to announce that we fully support the integration between Qxpress and MapPoint 2013.

On July 10th, 2012 Microsoft released a security patch and pushed it out to all Windows users.  This patch pertains to the data access libraries and addresses the issue described in security bulletin MS12-045 (KB2698385).  This patch causes a specific issue with QXpress.

QXpress communicates with the www.qxpress.com web server for two important tasks:  refreshing passwords and accessing the shared Template Designer library.  It does this via the Microsoft Remote Data Services library.  This library was affected as part of the aforementioned patch.  When either of these functions are invoked, QXpress terminates.

Microsoft has acknowledged this issue and is working on a fix.  Please reference this article and scroll to the response from the official Microsoft rep (roughly 3/4th of the way down the page).

Meanwhile, the workaround is to remove patch 2698385 and prevent it from re-installing itself.  We have posted wiki articles on how to do this.  If you are using Windows XP, follow this article here.  If you are using Windows 7 / Vista, follow this article here.

Please ensure, before purchasing QXpress, that your version of QuickBooks has the ability to synchronize with third party software (such as QXpress). You can find this out by selecting 'Edit', then 'Preferences' in QuickBooks, then locating the ‘Integrated Applications’ option. This functionality is essential to the synchronization of your customer and item data between QuickBooks and QXpress. ‘EasyStart’ versions of QuickBooks do not have this functionality.
