QuickBooks Error 6155

All of the QuickBooks user’s business data is compiled in the company files, making accounting tasks possible in the software. However, these files can sometimes fail to run due to QuickBooks Error 6155, which randomly develops while using the software. If you also lose access to the financial data due to this error, continue reading the blog to figure out why this happens and the techniques you can use to terminate the issue.

Reach out to our QB support team at +1-855-856-0042 for troubleshooting assistance to rectify the error.

Reasons

This error code appears on the screen whenever an accounting task related to the company file fails. The following are the most typical causes of this problem, which prevents you from accessing financial data in the company file:

  1. QuickBooks cannot trace a path to the data file due to an incorrect location mentioned in the software or insufficient folder permissions.
  2. The company file that causes this error is damaged and fails to run in your QuickBooks.
  3. The company file size is too large (greater than 3GB), which causes problems while running the file.

Solutions

You cannot access the business data on the company file or share it among other users after QBDT gets affected by this error. You must apply the following methods to ensure this error doesn’t block the company file tasks-


Solution 1- Ensure the company file exists in its default location mentioned in the software

You cannot access the company file and will run into 6XXX series errors if QuickBooks fails to locate the data file in the specified location. When you relocate a company file without modifying its software location, QuickBooks continues to search the file from its previous location. This error can also come up if the path to the company file is broken or some folders are missing. You can tackle these issues by moving the company file back to its original location, as described in the following steps-
  1. Go to the search panel on the taskbar and type your data file name with an * mark at the front.
  2. Open the file’s location from the search results and right-click on the company file.
  3. Select Copy in the options and go to C: Users\Public\PublicDocuments\Intuit\QuickBooksXX\Company files.
  4. Press Ctrl+V to paste the company file here and relaunch your QuickBooks.
  5. Open the company file again from its default location.
If you still face the error code and the file fails to open, move to the next solution.


Solution 2- Mend your damaged company file using the QB tool hub

QuickBooks can also face problems opening the company file and displays this error code if the file gets damaged. You’ll have to repair the data file to open it in the software using the QB tool hub, as shown in the given steps-
  1. Launch the QB tool hub and click the Company file issues menu located at the top.
  2. Click the Quick Fix My File option in the list.
  3. The tool usually takes 20 minutes to fix the file, after which you can open it in your QBDT without issues.

Conclusion

This is a thorough instruction explaining why access to the company file is blocked by QuickBooks Error 6155. The blog also describes some reliable ways to fix the error, and we hope you use them on your computer to open the QBDT company file without problems. Speak with our QB professionals at +1-855-856-0042 if you experience any difficulties utilizing the solutions.
