QuickBooks Error 179 occurs when a user tries to log into the bank’s site to access information. I faced the same error and here is what I did to fix the error.
1. First, sign out the bank’s website from all the computers that are connected in the network and have QuickBooks Desktop.
2. Open the Browser and clear cache and the browsing history from any user that might have accessed the bank’s website or QuickBooks.
3. Login back to the bank’s website and see if QuickBooks Error179 is resolved.
I hope once you follow these steps, you will be able to get rid of QuickBooks Error 179. In case you still get the issue try reaching out to the QB support team
