To understand this QB error, let&rsquo;s look at the complete error message:<\/p><pre class=\"wp-block-code command_container\"><code><em>&ldquo;QuickBooks is unable to open this company file. It may have been opened by another user. You should ask that user to switch to multi-user mode so you can both use the company file at the same time. The file could also be located in a read-only network folder. If it is, ask your system administrator to make the file accessible.<\/em>\n\nThe Support site contains information about this type of error and how to resolve the issue. Go to the Support site to view an article about the error. If the article doesn&rsquo;t help you resolve the problem, contact Support for assistance.\n\nError codes (-6190, -816).&rdquo;<\/code><\/pre><p>This error message clearly indicates that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/fix-quickbooks-wont-open-company-file-error\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">company file won&rsquo;t open<\/a> if another user is logged into the company file in a single-user mode. In other words, the QuickBooks error -6190, -816 occurs when multiple users try to open the same company file, which is in a single-user mode. You can try to fix the error by switching from single-user mode to multi-user mode on your server system. The error can also occur when there&rsquo;s some issue with the multi-user network. There are various other reasons that can lead to this error.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"reasons-behind-quickbooks-error--6190,--816\"><strong>Reasons behind QuickBooks Error -6190, -816<\/strong><\/h2><p>The QuickBooks error -6190, -816 could occur due to several reasons. A few of them are:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The company file does not match the linked transaction log file<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transaction log file is corrupted\/damaged<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Issues in .TLG\/.ND file<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Outdated QuickBooks application<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Incorrect hosting settings on the server system<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>QuickBooks data file is corrupted<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Network connection issues<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Antivirus or other third-party application interfering with company file<\/li>\n<\/ul><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"solutions-to-fix-quickbooks-error--6190,--816\"><strong>Solutions to Fix QuickBooks Error -6190, -816<\/strong><\/h2><p>When you encounter the QuickBooks error -6090, -816, first check and ensure that permissions on the company file folder are set correctly. To do this, open the <strong>File Explorer<\/strong> window, locate the company file folder, right-click on it, and select <strong>Properties.<\/strong> Click on the <strong>Security <\/strong>tab and check if all file permissions are allowed. If not, then grant them. Next, check the server <a href=\"https:\/\/quickbooks.intuit.com\/learn-support\/en-us\/access-data-remotely\/set-up-firewall-and-security-settings-for-quickbooks-desktop\/00\/201468\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">computer&rsquo;s Firewall settings<\/a> and ensure that the ports 80, 8019, and dynamic database ports for QuickBooks are opened in Firewall settings. If the issue is not resolved, follow the below solutions.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution 1: Rename .TLG\/.ND File<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3><p>The .ND and .TLG files are configuration files that allow QuickBooks to establish network connection. The files contain summaries of company files, including the transaction, hosting information, and other network-related data. If these files get corrupted, damaged, or fail to match the company file name, you may encounter the QuickBooks error -6190, -816 while opening the company file. You can reset these files to resolve the issue. For this, just rename these files. Follow the steps below:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Locate the <strong>Company file folder<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Search for the files with the same name as your company (QBW) file but with the extensions .TLG and .ND. For example: Emp.qbw.nd, Emp.qbw.tlg.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Search for one of the files (for example, Emp.qbw.nd), right-click on it, and select Rename.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now, add &ldquo;OLD&rdquo; at the end of the file name. For example: Emp.qbw.nd.OLD.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat the same procedure to rename other files.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open the QuickBooks application and check if the error is fixed or not.<\/li>\n<\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution 2: Check and Change User Mode<\/strong><\/h3><p>If you are trying to access the company file in single-user mode, then you can encounter the QuickBooks error -6190,-816. To resolve this, change the mode to multi-user. For this, you need to simply go to the QuickBooks<strong> File<\/strong> menu and click on <strong>Switch to Multi-user Mode<\/strong>.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution 3: Check and Change Hosting Settings<\/strong><\/h3><p>The <strong>Host Multi-User Access<\/strong> option should be enabled only on server system, which is hosting the company file. If it is enabled on a workstation, it can create conflict in multi-user environment, leading to the QuickBooks error -6090, -816. You can check and turn off multi-user mode on workstations, by following these steps:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>On a workstation, open your QuickBooks application.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now, without opening the company file, go to <strong>File <\/strong>and then choose <strong>Utilities<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click <strong>Stop Hosting Multi-user Access<\/strong> option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat the above procedure on all the workstations.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>Next, check if you are able to open the QuickBooks company file. If you still see the QuickBooks error -6190,-816, then open QuickBooks on the server system and follow these steps:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to <strong>File<\/strong> and then select <strong>Utilities.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on option the labelled &ndash; <strong>Host Multi-User Access<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution 4: Update QuickBooks Application<\/strong><\/h3><p>Sometimes, outdated QuickBooks desktop application can also lead to such errors. So, make sure that your QuickBooks application is updated to the latest version. To update QuickBooks,<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Close your company file and then close QuickBooks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Right-click the QuickBooks Desktop icon and select&nbsp;<strong>Run as administrator<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>On the &ldquo;<strong>No Company Open&rdquo;<\/strong> screen, go to the&nbsp;<strong>Help<\/strong>&nbsp;menu and choose&nbsp;<strong>Update QuickBooks.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"575\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Picture8.jpg\" alt=\"choose&nbsp;Update QuickBooks option \" class=\"wp-image-177516 apply-gradient-on-post-images\" style=\"width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Picture8.jpg 575w, https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Picture8-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Picture8-150x111.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 575px) 100vw, 575px\" \/><\/figure><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to the&nbsp;<strong>Options<\/strong> tab and select <strong>Mark All<\/strong>.
