Hello meyerjamesk,
I'll join in this thread to share some details about the -6176, 0 error.
This error is caused by firewall blocking the connection between the computers. Here are some troubleshooting steps that can help you fix this error:
First, try opening the file again. You may only see these errors the first time you attempt to open a company file and opening the file a second time results in success. Next, make sure QuickBooks is updated to the latest release.
You can also toggle the UAC setting, here's how:
Windows 10, 8.1, and 8
- Close QuickBooks.
- On your keyboard, press Windows logo and type User Account Control.
- Go to Settings > Change User Account Control Settings.
- Make note of the current level and then move the slider to the highest setting, Always notify.
