To resolve "The file you specified cannot be opened" error in QuickBooks, ensure you have the correct file permissions. Run QuickBooks as an administrator, and verify that the file is not in use by another program. Additionally, disable any conflicting third-party applications or antivirus software. If needed, use the QuickBooks File Doctor tool to fix file issues.
