Quickbooks Desktop 2018 & 2019.  I am trying to export any of the Tax Form Worksheets in the Employee tab and keep getting an error saying Cannot connect to Quickbooks and at the bottom - Error 429 - ActiveX Component cannot create Object.

 

I am using Windows 10 and Excel 2016

    Solved- For me at least.

    I uninstalled my antivirus software, Cylance, and the issue went away. Turns out it was blocking the script running in Excel.

    Were you able to find a better work around for Cylance? I would rather keep script blocking on and just allow this thru somehow.

     

    Thanks!
