Solutions
You’ll face trouble utilizing the company file if the QBCF monitor service stops running or crashes in the background. The following techniques will help you remove the issue and run QBDT efficiently-Solution 1- Arrange Windows Firewall settings in favour of QBDT to prevent issues
Windows Firewall can limit the functions of QBDT and other PC applications that cause issues when they run. QBCFMonitorservice can also get affected by Windows Firewall restrictions, leading to issues when you try opening/hosting a data file. You can resolve the issues by adding specific firewall ports in the settings to ensure QBDT can bypass the Windows Firewall's restrictions and avoid developing any errors. Use the following steps-- Open the Windows Defender Firewall menu from the control panel and click the Inbound Rules option.
- Select the New Rule option and tap Port before hitting Next.
- You’ll see UDP & TCP options in the next window. Click the TCP option and go to the Specific local ports option.
- Use the following list to add specific ports for the QBDT version you use-
- QuickBooks Desktop 2017:8019, 56727, 55373-55377
- QuickBooks Desktop 2018:8019,56728,55378-55382
- QuickBooks Desktop 2019:8019, XXXXX
- QuickBooks Desktop 2020 and recent:8019, XXXXX.
- Click Next after choosing the correct firewall ports and tap Allow the connection.
- Tap Next again and give any desirable name to the new rule you create.
- Save the changes by clicking the Finish option and relaunch QuickBooks.
If the QBCFMonitorservice still faces issues while running, move to the next solution.
