Have you ever been using QuickBooks and you attempted to close a report or other transaction screen, but instead of clicking the "X" to close the report or transaction screen, you mistakenly click on the red "X" in the upper most right-hand corner and closed QuickBooks instead? We've all done this and it's annoying.  

Beginning in the 2009 release of QuickBooks, Intuit added a handy little feature. Intuit made it so if you did click the red "X" (on purpose or by mistake), an "Exiting QuickBooks" dialog box is displayed and you are asked, "Are you sure you want to exit QuickBooks?" You then have the choice to click, "Yes" or "No".

So, what's the problem with this? No problem at all... UNLESS, you accidently check the box which reads, "Do not display this message in the future". You see, if you check this box and then select "Yes" or "No", the next time you click on the red "X", QuickBooks will close and you are back to the pre-2009 days; unless, you know how to bring this very useful dialog box back. And that is the primary intent of this particular blog"

How do you bring this dialog box back? Why, you watch this short step-by-step video! Click HERE to Watch this Video!

Cool, huh?
