Intuit has purportedly fixed a flaw that was causing an automatic software update for QuickBooks Pro 2006 and 2007 to delete data on a Mac by correcting an internal server that had caused the problem. The company said the message should no longer appear to users opening up the QuickBooks application, reports ComputerWorld.
Intuit said it hasn’t been able to come up with a resolution to allow end users to recover files that were lost as a result of the problem, the article adds. The company said it is working on that but could not predict when a fix would be issued. Intuit officials could not be reached for comment on the flaw.
According to Intuit, the automatic update for QuickBooks Pro Mac 2006 had displayed the message, “There is not enough space to install.” The flawed update instantly removed stored files from the Mac desktop folder.
