I'm here to help ensure you're able to log in to your QuickBooks Desktop company file, billorlottieeubanks.
 

Before we start, I'd like to verify if you've encountered an error while logging into your QBDT account. If so, there are various reasons why you can't open your company file. Some of them are the following:

 

  • A user logged into the company file is using Remote Access and did not log out from a previous session.
  • The user is already logged into the company file from a different workstation.
  • An electrical problem caused a conflict in the network.

 

Let's run Quick Fix my Program from the QuickBooks Tool Hub. It helps resolve the common errors in your QuickBooks Desktop. Here's how:

 

  1. Close your QuickBooks Desktop.
  2. Download the most recent version (1.5.0.0) of the QuickBooks Tool Hub.
  3. Install the downloaded file, then open it.
  4. In the QuickBooks Tool Hub, select Program Problems.
  5. Select Quick Fix my Program.
  6. Open QuickBooks Desktop and reset your password.

 

If you get the same error, restart the server that stores and hosts the company data file.

 

If the issue persists, you can check out this article for more troubleshooting steps: Error: The attempt to log in with the user name Admin failed

 

In addition, I added some links that can help you in fixing issues due to damaged files:

 

 

Stay in touch with me if there's anything you need aside from the log in issue. Just leave a comment below, and I'll get back to you.
