Re: Unable to open recently upgraded company file
Hi Everyone! Below are some frequently asked questions about using the tool and around this space: My browser is indicating that the download is to be discarded? Due to the way the tool has been developed, your browser may prompt you to discard that download. Should that occur you want to select the Keep option. Upon running the tool I am encountering the following error? This message is caused by not having some necessary Microsoft Components installed that are required by the tool. The following would be needed to be installed to allow that tool to be run.

There is a second post on this thread that does answer commonly asked questions - scroll down to see that post or click here. We have seen a number of cases of offline company files that, following an AccountRight upgrade, are not opening or closing unexpectedly or generating a "Something has gone wrong message." This article contains information on identifying if you are impacted and running the necessary tool required to repair that file to allow it to be opened: How do you determine you are impacted? Following an AccountRight upgrade, if you are not able to open an offline company file, or you are encountering a "Something has gone wrong" message do check out thediagnostic file for the application - this can be opened in NotePad or another similar application. If you are needing to run the following tool, thatdiagnostic file would contain traces of the wording "InvalidFingerPrint" Example line in diagnostic file would: MYOB.Huxley.UI.Decorators.DecoratorFaultProcessor,Error,1,Unhandled error. : MYOB.Huxley.API.HuxleyActivationException: (InvalidFingerprint): Running the Tool: If you do see cases of "InvalidFingerprint" in that diagnostic file, do look at completing the following steps: Close AccountRight Download the following tool: AccountRight Hotfix tool Having trouble accessing the download?

Once extracted, select to run the AccountRight_Hotfix.exe file. This will open the tool: Please note that depending on your IT setup you may need to be logged on as the Windows Administrator. Browse to the impacted file and select Open once located Indicate that you have a backup of the file and then Apply. Should you be successful you would encounter the following message: Once you have that message, close the tool and open the file in AccountRight as per normal. Note: You may be prompted to re-confirm upon opening but this can be done online using the Confirm Online function.
