Global Password reset

I am using Quickbooks 2014 desktop. I have 54 data files that I am in and out of all day long.  I also have 4 users set up on each data file.  I have set up passwords for each user.  But my users forget their password which means I have to go into all 54 data files and reset their password.  Is there a way to globally reset passwords?

Global Password reset

 

Hello there, @MarySue123.

 

QuickBooks Desktop requires one admin password/user for every company file. If you have multiple company files, you may need to have a password for each of those company files.

 

To know more about QuickBooks Desktop File Manager, here's an article that you can refer to.
