QB database server manager scan on start without prompt

Most all of my customers have Dedicated QB servers.

When the servers get restarted for updates, patches, power outages, etc. I have:

1. Autologon setup to login a local or domain admin

2. A logon task runs to open the Database Server Manager

3. **********MISSING STEP*********** MAKE IT SCAN FILES AUTOMATICALLY, WITHOUT PROMPT.

4. Automatically Lock the screen with another task action

QB database server manager scan on start without prompt

Hello there, @PLinley.

 

We can fix network issues and company files with QuickBooks File Doctor.

 

You'll have to close QuickBooks first. Then, download the most recent version (1.5.0.0) of the QuickBooks Tool Hub. Afterward, save the file somewhere you can easily find it. Once done, continue with the steps below:

 

  1. Open the file you downloaded (QuickBooksToolHub.exe).
  2. Follow the on-screen steps to install and agree to the terms and conditions.
  3. When the install finishes, double-click the icon on your Windows desktop to open the tool hub.
  4. Once the QuickBooks Tool Hub is open, select Installation Issues.
  5. Click and run the QuickBooks Install Diagnostic Tool.

 

To ensure the components are properly updated, please restart the computer after running the tool. You can read through these articles:

 

 

Please let me know if you have other concerns or need follow-up help with this matter. I'll be around to respond as soon as I can. Take care and stay safe always.

File permissions or network issues were not going to provide a resolution.

Fixing those still doesn't click "Start Scan" and "Ok" to the message in the DB Server Manager, so I created 2 windows scheduled tasks to run at logon to start it and use an autohotkey script to click the 2 buttons, then to lock the screen.
