While Error 56 is a general error, it's often preceded by messages like 'QuickBooks is unable to access the company file' or 'There was an error opening the company file.' Sometimes, you might see a more specific error code alongside Error 56, which can provide more clues about the underlying problem. Documenting these preceding messages is helpful for troubleshooting.
