I have a client who uses Quickbooks Desktop 2019 that is installed on a Microsoft 2016 Server Standard machine. On several occasions, almost weekly, users cannot login while others are. So the system is in multi-user mode for sure but it's like it gets into this state where it thinks you are trying to login under single user mode. However if I login to the desktop of the server, sign into Quickbooks as the main admin account, then all of a sudden the users can log back in. Any ideas why this is?

I've used that tool a million times. It continues to happen even though the tool comes back and says the database is fine.
Thanks for keeping us updated, CCExpert.
Aside from ensuring that the database and file are in good condition, there's a possibility that these users were damaged. I'd recommend deleting and recreating the affected users. Also, make sure that the QuickBooks release version is updated.
If the same thing happens, I'd suggesting reaching out to our Technical Support Team. They can pull up your account and further review your file.
