WHAT CAUSES QUICKBOOKS ERROR 6190?
Error 6190 usually occurs when more than one user tries to access the QB Company File in single user mode, which can also result in loss of data. Corruption in the Transaction Log File (TLG) and QuickBooks Company File (QCF) can cause this error too. The error message goes like this- QuickBooks was unable to open the Company File (path) located on the host computer. Some of the reasons can be as follows-
- In the QuickBooks TLG file, there is a list of all the changes that may happen in the company file. The TLG file is stored automatically in the company file itself. Discrepancies in both these files can result in QB error 6190.
- Sometimes users start updating the QB Company File without checking if the Transaction Log File is updated on the system or not. This may lead to error 6190.
- If there is data damage in the QB Company File or if multiple users try opening the company file in a single user mode.
