1. Change the Firewall Setting

To resolve QuickBooks Error 2000 by altering firewall settings, you need to open Windows Firewall with Advanced Settings. Through advanced settings, you can set inbound and outbound rules for specific programs.

Here, you need to set both inbound and outbound rules for QuickBooks. Make sure to allow QB through all required ports. If QuickBooks error 2000 still persists, then contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP.) Your ISP may be blocking certain ports. These ports will only allow access to QB if and only if allowed by your ISP.

Once all of this is done, restart your system and launch QB. You should now be able to work easily. If there are some other connection problems, then they might be caused by third-party software such as your security software. Many security software come with an integrated firewall. You should turn off or uninstall your security software and try restarting QB.
