@modernoak  , @patrickfields , did you try to map the network location where your QuickBooks files are?

See instructions here: (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/map-a-network-drive-in-windows-10-29ce55d1-34e3-a7e2-480...

You can map that network location to a drive letter, let's say W: or Y: or some letter you don't already use, and then access that location via the drive letter.
