    I've been encountering an error lately and could really use some help. I keep getting the QuickBooks Error 6000 80, and it seems to be related to multiple company file issues. I've tried a few troubleshooting steps, but I haven't been able to resolve it yet. Has anyone else experienced this error before? If so, I would greatly appreciate any insights or solutions you might have.

    Here's what I know so far:

    1. The error message pops up when I try to open a specific company file, but other company files seem to work fine.
    2. I've checked the file path and made sure it's not too long or located in a restricted folder.
    3. I've tried restoring a backup of the company file, but the error persists.
    4. My QuickBooks software is up to date, so that shouldn't be the issue.

    If anyone has encountered this error and managed to resolve QuickBooks Error 6000 80 (Multiple Company File Issue), please share your experience and the steps you took to fix it. Any suggestions or guidance would be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!
