Solutions to fix QuickBooks Desktop performance issues

Let's understand how to resolve these errors and improve QuickBooks' performance, especially when QuickBooks running slow.

Solution 1: Create a backup file to reset the TLG file and restore lists

Creating a recent backup file helps enhance QuickBooks' performance by resetting the Transaction Log file (TLG), which tracks changes before they are written to the database.

Here is additional information about the TLG:

 

• To initiate the process, begin by selecting the File menu, followed by Backup Company, and then opt for Local Backup.
• Select Local Backup and click on Options.
• Choose your Desktop or another local location from the Tell us where to save your backup copies option.
• Make sure Complete Verification is checked, and then click OK.
• Select Save it Now, and then click Next.
• Choose your Desktop and click Save in the Save Backup Copy window.
• After completing these steps, QuickBooks Desktop will create a backup file on your desktop.

Solution 2: Optimize the company file by reducing fragments and performing disk defragmentation

 

• If your company file is local to the desktop, create and restore a portable file.
• After creating and restoring the portable file, perform disk defragmentation. If your file is on a network, access the server computer.
• Do not perform disk defragmentation if your computer is using a Solid-State Drive (SSD).
• Click the Start button, then choose All Programs. Choose Accessories, then System Tools, and finally Disk Defragmenter.
• Click on the Defragmenter button and follow the on-screen instructions to defragment your hard drive.
