How to open TAXFORM file?
The most common problem when using QuickBooks Draft is that a specific TAXFORM is not associated with the program.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TAXFORM file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 2. Create association of QuickBooks with TAXFORM files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TAXFORM file still does not use the QuickBooks program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the TAXFORM file with the QuickBooks application.
Step 3. Update QuickBooks to the latest version
If, however, after binding QuickBooks with QuickBooks Draft there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Intuit Inc. website and install the latest version.
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the TAXFORM file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our TAXFORM file. Sometimes virus-infected TAXFORM files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TAXFORM file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TAXFORM files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Intuit Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TAXFORM files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the TAXFORM file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the TAXFORM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TAXFORM to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
