# Quickbooks : Unable to cast COM object

## Article Contents: This article will guide you through the process if you encounter the "unable to cast COM object" error typically seen with the Quickbooks software.

**Step by Step**

**Step 1:** Register the DLL

To address this issue, follow these steps to register the relevant DLL file:

1\. \*\*Close QuickBooks\*\* by navigating to File \> Exit.

2\. Open the command prompt with administrative rights by going to Start \> All Programs \> Accessories. Right-click on the command prompt and select "Run as administrator".

3\. Change the directory to QuickBooks' installation folder by entering: \`cd C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Common Files\\Intuit\\QuickBooks\`.

4\. At the QuickBooks directory prompt, register the DLL by typing: \`regsvr32 qbxmlrp2.dll\`.

5\. A confirmation message "DllRegisterServer in qbxmlrp2.dll succeeded" will appear upon successful registration.

6\. Restart QuickBooks. If the error persists, consider performing a clean reinstall of QuickBooks as per Intuit's instructions.####

**Step 2:** Rename the QBW File
