Are you looking for the settings option in QuickBooks? The Gear icon in QuickBooks handles the settings and account management. This icon is in the upper right corner of the software in between the other two options, namely “create” and “help”. It may sometimes not work and even disappear due to a troubleshooting issue in your internet explorer which is the default browser to use QuickBooks. When an excess of cached data and history accumulates in the browser it affects QuickBooks and some of its features like the gear icon may not work, and you must know how to resolve it.
