Common ways to resolve the QuickBooks Error 6000.
Stop QuickBooks from opening all windows at start-up
One of the most tried-and-tested methods of avoiding this problem is to stop the application from opening all windows at start-up:
- Press the Alt key while double-clicking QuickBooks application icon.
- When the system displays the prompt for the user password, release the Alt key and type in your password.
- Click OK, and when the application launches, press the Alt key again.
- Release the Alt
Open a sample file
If you are still unable to open your company file without facing the error, try opening a sample file as follows:
- Press the Ctrl key while double-clicking QuickBooks application icon.
- Continue pressing the Ctrl key till the application displays the ‘No Company Open’
- Click ‘Open a sample file’.
- Select one of the sample files and open it.
Copy the company file to your Desktop
Changing the location of the company file you wish to open is also an option you could try. The reason why this solution works is the limitation on the storage path of the file. Perform the following steps to change the location of your QuickBooks file:
- Open the folder in which your company file is located and use the Locate option to find the QBW file.
- Copy and Paste the file on Desktop.
- Launch QuickBooks while pressing the Ctrl key till the application displays the ‘No Company Open’
- Click on Open, browse to the file you copied on Desktop and click Open
Use Auto Data Recovery
Restore the company file using the Auto Data Recovery option.
