Solutions

You won’t be able to download the latest tax tables once this error influences your QuickBooks. The accurate methods to prevent this error from developing during payroll updates are discussed below-

Solution 1- Ensure the File Copy Service runs during the payroll update

QuickBooks File Copy Service helps to move the required files quickly to make them available for the software. This saves the software from fetching the files on the whole hard disk again and again during the payroll update. The FCS automatically starts running in the background when you start a payroll or software update and helps QuickBooks quickly retrieve the files required during the update. QuickBooks might face trouble installing the payroll update if FCS stops running in the background. The correct steps to enable Intuit FCS on your PC are mentioned below-

Close QuickBooks on your PC and right-click the ‘My Computer’ or ‘This PC’ icon.
Select Manage in the list and tap Services & Applications in the left panel.
Double-click the Services option and check the list for Intuit QuickBooks FCS.
Single-click on it and move to the General tab.
Click the Startup Type option and click Manual.
Tap Apply and click Start.
Relaunch your QuickBooks.

Move to the next solution if the payroll update gets blocked again.

Solution 2- Remove software issues using the Quick Fix My Program tool

QuickBooks payroll update might also stop if the software malfunctions due to internal issues or minor glitches. You must install the QuickBooks Tool hub and use the tools to repair minor issues from the software. Here are the correct steps to use the QB tool hub-

Launch the QB Tool hub by double-clicking on the QuickBooksToolhub.exe icon.
Click the Program Problems option in the menu and select Quick Fix My Program in the drop-down list.
Wait until the tool fixes the software completely and try updating the payroll service again.
