Details of the error

• The software will be affected by this error
  mostly while updating payroll. It indicates that
  the connection between QuickBooks and the
  downloaded update files has failed. This
  inaccessibility to the update files is causing
  issues in the software whenever it tries to set
  up a connection with the files while updating the
  payroll. The update process will crash every time
  you try, and the software may also freeze for
  some seconds after displaying error messages.
• Reasons
• This error is most likely to occur because of the
  reasons mentioned below-
• QuickBooks functions or program files are being
  blocked by antivirus/firewall leading to this
  error.
• There were some network issues while downloading
  the update, which caused corruption in the files.
• QuickBooks is unable to access the file because
  of folder permissions or account settings.

Solution 1- Make favourable changes in the User
Account Control Settings(UAC)

• The User account settings can block specific
  QuickBooks actions and make it difficult for
  QuickBooks to access the files necessary for the
  update. The software will instantly show an error
  message if its unable to access any file.
  Changing the User Account Settings might help you
  in this situation refer to the steps below-
• Go to the Run window by pressing Windows R on
  your keyboard.
• Type Control Panel in the command field and then
  click Ok.
• Select the User Accounts option in the menu.
• Tap on Change user account control settings.
• Shift the slider to Never Notify and click Ok
  afterward to turn off the UAC settings.
• Reopen QuickBooks.
• If the error is still present in the software,
  move to the next solution.

Solution 2- Check if the internet speed of your
network connection is sufficient to run QuickBooks

• The update process will be directly due to a slow
  internet speed. The software wont be able to
  connect to the internet properly, and data losses
  while downloading the updates can cause
  corruption in the file. Follow the steps below to
  verify-
• Visit Google in a web browser on your PC.
• Type Internet speed test and run the test,
• Make sure your internet speed lies between
  1.5Mbps 3 Mbps (recommendations of QuickBooks).
• If your internet speed is not satisfactory, try
  using a wired network connection as an upgrade.
