Hi there, patriotjames.

Your login to the QuickBooks company file will remain the same even if you change its location. Although you can reset your password in case you no longer have it. Here's how:

1. Click I forgot my password in the Company Login window
2. Select an email from the dropdown list, then click Next. We'll email a token to reset your password. 
3. Enter the token from your email.

You can also follow these steps in case the first option does not work:

1. Double-check your info. Check for any typos and confirm the info matches with what's in CAMPS.
2. If you got an error or still need help with your password, try the Automated Password Reset tool.
3. If you still need help, select Search for something else, type password, and select Search to contact us.

Here's an article about this for more details: Reset Your Password for QuickBooks Desktop. 

Feel free to take a look at this article for additional guidance and reference:

• Move or Reinstall QuickBooks Desktop to Another Computer

When I sent the QBDATA folder over to the local machine, when I attempt to open QB it still goes back to the server from which it was moved.  What are the steps to correct this?
