Try opening your QBO account on any private/incognito browser.

I was told today that my system is corrupt and it is not going to work this is a software issue how am i to respond?

It's my pleasure to assist you today, @pageconsultinglt.

 

Before we report this issue to our engineers, I have a couple of suggestions to rule out this problem. Like what Fiat Lux - ASIA's suggestion, open your account in a private web browser. We need to be sure if this is a caching problem.

 

Unexpected issues in QuickBooks are sometimes associated with the amount of data stored in the cache. This is because a regular browser will constantly overwrite itself and will not remove history unless done manually.

 

Private browsing will not save any history, so it's a great place to identify issues in the browser. Use these keyboard shortcuts to launch a new private window:

 

  • Google Chrome: press Ctrl Shift N  
  • Mozilla Firefox: press Ctrl Shift P
  • Safari: press Command Shift N

 

If the error message doesn't come up, clear the cache to resolve browser issues in QBO. You can also use a different browser and see if the issue persists there.

 

If you keep getting the same problem, I highly recommend contacting our QuickBooks Online Care Team this time. They can check if there are similar reports from other users and help open an investigation on this unexpected behavior. Here's how you can get our contact information:

 

They can help report this to our engineers who can help with program bugs and other technical concerns. Follow these steps to reach out to a live agent:

  7. When using this option, make sure to enable pop-up windows. The chat box will appear at the bottom right section of your monitor, and an agent will be with you shortly after. See this:

 

For now, access your QuickBooks account in another browser, to resume your tasks.
