Struggling with QuickBooks Hosting Mode turned off when trying to enable multi-user access? You’re not alone. When the hosting mode is disabled, your workstations can’t access the company file hosted on the main server — bringing your multi-user setup to a grinding halt.

Skip the confusion and call the experts at 1(844) 527-4011 to re-enable QuickBooks Hosting Mode safely and correctly.

❓ What Does Hosting Mode Mean in QuickBooks?

QuickBooks Hosting Mode allows one system (typically a server) to share the company file with multiple users over a network. When hosting is off, no other users can connect, which interrupts collaboration and productivity.

? Signs That Hosting Mode Is Off

• QuickBooks throws the "Company file is located on another computer" error
  
  

• Only the local system can open the file
  
  

• Multi-user mode isn’t working despite being selected
  
  

• The company file appears as read-only on workstations
  
  

• The Hosting status under the File > Utilities menu says “Host Multi-User Access”
  
  

?️ Common Causes of Disabled Hosting

• ❌ Hosting not turned on after installation
  
  

• ? Windows firewall or antivirus blocking multi-user communication
  
  

• ? QuickBooks Database Server Manager not installed on server
  
  

• ? Network file (.ND) is missing or damaged
  
  

• ⚙️ Misconfigured folder permissions on the server
  
  

• ? Damaged QuickBooks installation or services

? Fix It Yourself: Quick Steps to Try

Step 1: Check Hosting Status

On your host/server computer:

1. Open QuickBooks
   
   

2. Go to File > Utilities
   
   

3. If you see Host Multi-User Access, click it
   
   

4. If it says Stop Hosting Multi-User Access, hosting is already enabled
   
   

Step 2: Restart QuickBooks Database Server Manager

1. Open Run (Windows + R)
   
   

2. Type services.msc
   
   

3. Find QuickBooksDBXX (where XX = your version year)
   
   

4. Right-click > Restart
   
   

5. Set it to Automatic
   
   

Step 3: Rescan Folders Using Database Server Manager

• Open QuickBooks Database Server Manager
  
  

• Add your company file folder
  
  

• Click Scan
  
  

• Try switching to multi-user mode again
  
  

? Why This Matters for Your Business

With Hosting Mode disabled:

• Your team can’t collaborate in real-time
  
  

• File sync issues can lead to data damage
  
  

• You risk unauthorized file overwrites or duplicate entries
  
  

• Your operations grind to a halt
  
  

Don't take the risk — resolve it with help from certified technicians.
