Facing QuickBooks connection lost error and don’t know how to get rid of the issue? Well, this is a common error often encountered by QuickBooks users. This error appears when the software loses the connection to the company file and might end up in closing the software immediately. Also, if the data is unsaved, then it might not be recovered. This particular issue indicates that the software won’t be able to access the company file or a particular section of the company file. The connection lost error can also damage the QBWUSER.INI file. There can be a bunch of other factors causing this issue. To learn more about this issue in QuickBooks, make sure to read the post carefully. The user can also get in touch with our tech support professionals at +1(844)405-0907 and ask our tech team to rectify the issue permanently.

What triggers this error?

This error can be experienced due to the following reasons:

·         One can experience this issue if the company file is stored on another system or on a portable drive and the connection the storage device was disrupted.

·         Also, if the power management settings in Windows activated the sleep or hibernation mode on the system having the companies file.

·         In case more than one system on a network is configured to host the QuickBooks company file, then such an error can be seen

·         If the systems in a multi-user installation are running different versions of QuickBooks, then experiencing this issue is common

o   And then press Windows key and type QuickBooks. In case the QuickBooks or database server manager doesn’t appear in the list, it means the program is not installed. You need to install, update and set up the QuickBooks database server manager.

·         Setting hosting settings.

o   Here the user needs to first open QuickBooks

o   After that choose file and utilities option.

o   If the user finds the stop hosting multi-user access in the menu, then hosting is enabled

·         If QuickBooks is installed on the host system:

o   The user needs to first double click the QuickBooks database server manager icon in the Windows system tray.

o   Now, click on database server tab.

o   Verify that the company file is visible in the window below currently connected company files and logged in users. In case it is not, then you need to click the scan folders tab and then click on help for the information about adding the company file.
