there is a possibility that the registry might be corrupted. Follow these steps
to fix the registry error and connect to your Sage account:
1. Boot your computer into safe mode by pressing F8 when your computer starts

Solution 3: Use a Static IP Address
If you're
experiencing trouble connecting to a Sage Connection Manager server, there are
several potential solutions. First, make sure that the IP address of your
server is correctly set. You can check this by opening a command prompt and
entering the following command:
ipconfig
If the IP address is not correct, you'll need to change it. You can find out
what your current IP address is by entering the following command:
ping google.com
If the ping fails, you'll need to change your IP address. To do this, you'll
first need to find out if your router has DHCP capabilities. If so, you'll need
to contact your router's manufacturer for instructions on how to enable them.
If your router doesn't have DHCP capabilities, you'll need to configure it so
that it assigns specific IP addresses automatically. To do this, open a browser
and enter the following address.
http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/netconfig/inetnum?address=192.168.1.230&prefixlen=64
You should replace "192.168.1.230" with the actual IP address of your
server and "64" with the desired prefix length (in bytes). After
filling in these values, click OK to save the configuration file and close the
browser window. Next, you'll need to restart your computer in order for the new
settings to take effect. To do this, select Start.

are experiencing an error with the Sage 50 Connection Manager, there are a few
