Solution 2: Changing Hosting Configuration
If you are currently on a server that has been hosted by a workstation and the files that are to be accessed are on a different computer, then it is recommended to host it from the computer that contains the files that are to be made accessible. According to QuickBooks, the hosting has to be done from the computer that is storing the files.
Solution 3: Rebooting Computer
In some cases, if you are facing the “Error Code -6098,0” while trying to sign in or while accessing some files, it is recommended that you just reboot the computer and try to access them again. The application can get glitched in some cases and prevent the user from accessing it. A simple reboot might allow the user to be able to access the required files. Note: If you aren’t in at least the “PowerGroup” level of privileges, you might face this issue indefinitely until you are bumped up to the required privilege level. Therefore, it is recommended to ask your management for a higher privilege level if the error remains persistent.
