after getting damaged.
2. The company file you are trying to open has invalid characters in its name, or 
the file is corrupted.
3. QuickBooks Database Server Manager failed to run, which caused the multi-
user network to break down.

tackle the issue is by recreating the damaged program files using as given in 
these steps-
1. Use the file explorer to go to the location of your QuickBooks folder.
2. Search files with .TLG and .ND inside the folder.
3. Right-click on the files individually and tap the Rename option in the list.
4. Type ‘.old’ at the file name’s end as an extension and save the files.
