  1. An Expert Guide to Resolve QuickBooks Desktop Freezes Even after being a preferred accounting software by millions of users, QuickBooks can still disappoint you with its sluggish performance when it freezes and doesn’t start. Don’t worry, no problem is without a solution. Similarly, to assist you in resolving this problem, we have compiled this blog, which explains the reasons behind and solutions to eliminate the QuickBooks Desktop freezes issue.  Talking about this complication, QuickBooks won’t open or close when you try to do so. Instead, it shows you an off-screen window that runs in the background. Also, when you try to close the program, it fails to get shut down. Moreover, we have briefly discussed key factors along with the elimination methods. For this, you should take a long walk through this blog and implement the solutions as mentioned.

  2. If you are unable to bring the QuickBooks application back to its normal state, you should contact a professional to do this for you. Give a call to 1.855.738.2784 and get connected with a QB Expert.

  3. Exploring the Source of the QB Desktop Freezes Problem Here are the reasons that might be responsible for the QB freezing. See what they are: • A long company name can be the reason. • It could be due to a damaged or missing QBWUSER.INI file. • Another reason why QB is freezing is a corrupted hard drive. • It could be due to a damaged Windows Operating System.  • If program files or QB Desktop installation are damaged, this can lead to the problem of QB freezing.

  4. Recommended Resolutions For QuickBooks Desktop Freezes In this section. We have briefly discussed the solutions that can help you repair the QB Desktop in case it freezes and doesn’t respond. See what you can do in this scenario:

  5. Solution 1: Download QB Install Diagnostic Tool We know the QB Connection Tool is designed to identify and repair component issues. That’s why you need to use this utility to check if there is any sort of component problem with the software. See how to check it: • Visit a preferred site to download the QB Diagnostic Tool. • Save the file to an easily accessible location. • Close the background running programs. • Run the QB Install Tool, which may take around 20 minutes to run. The completion duration depends on the internet speed and PC performance. • After this, you need to restart your computer and make sure that the components are properly updated.

  6. Solution 2: Rename the QBWUSER.ini file It is clear from the section above that QB may start freezing if the QBWUSER.ini file is damaged or missing. Thus, renaming this file could help you fix the problem.  This is how to rename the QBWUSER.ini file: • Locate the folder where you had saved the QBWUSER.ini file. It is possibly present in Users[Your user name]AppDataLocalIntuitQuickBooks [year]. In case the folder is not visible, you will need to enable the hidden files and folders. • Right-click the QBWUSER.ini file. • Choose Rename. • After this, you need to append .old in the file, and later, the filename will look like: (as in QBWUSER.ini.old). • Rename theEntitlementDataStore.ecml file. • Open the QB Desktop again. • If, after renaming the QBWUSER.ini file and EntitlementDataStore.ecml file, you are able to open the software, try to open a sample company file. 

  7. If the sample company file is easily accessible but not your own company file, you will need to copy your company file to another folder and try to open it from that location. We recommend that you copy this to a local folder, not a network location.  If in this location, you are able to open this file, then the problem is not in the file but might be with the folder where it is saved. Conversely, if you still can’t open the file from a different location, the file is most likely damaged. Attempt to restore a backup of the file.  The QB installation is damaged if you can’t open the sample company file. 

  8. Parting Thoughts We hope that the guide is enough to assist you if your QuickBooks Desktop freezes or doesn’t start. It includes different sections, briefing its causes and the resolutions for the issue. If you are still unable to resolve the problem, connect with an expert. Give a call 1.855.738.2784 and talk to a QB Expert.
