Getting the latest version

The latest AccountRight version is 2026.5 which was released in June 2026. What's new in the latest version?

Manually installing the latest AccountRight version

If you're installing AccountRight for the first time or on a new computer, follow these instructions.

Install AccountRight (PC Edition)

Here's how to install the latest AccountRight version, sometimes called the PC Edition.

AccountRight will be installed for the user who is currently logged into Windows. If other users log in to this computer using their own Windows account name, they’ll need to install AccountRight as well.

  2. Close all other programs on your computer.

  3. Double-click the downloaded installer file on your desktop to start the installation.

  4. Follow the prompts to complete the installation.

  5. After installing, you can start AccountRight using the AccountRight icon on your desktop:

If you're new to AccountRight, you can now create a company file, or work on an existing file.

If you still work offline or in a local network

AccountRight Server Edition is a temporary solution that may support working offline for the short-term. If you have some files online, you’ll still need AccountRight PC Edition to keep working with them. You can install both editions on the same computer.

There are a few things to be aware of when using Server Edition:

  • MYOB does not recommend this approach – Server Edition it is built on technology that no longer meets today’s performance standards.

  • In the near future, Server Edition will stop working and you’ll no longer be able to use it.

  • Server Edition will not receive minor bug fixes, security updates or any new features or enhancements.

  • There is no guarantee MYOB will be able to support this option in the future.

Work offline for now with Server Edition

You need Windows administrator permission to complete the installation.

  1. Right-click this download link and choose Save link as or Save target as and save the installer file to your desktop.

  2. Close all programs.

When you're ready to move online

To do this, you'll need to administer AccountRight using the MSI installer.
