Suitable Solutions to Fix Error Code 15107 in QuickBooks Desktop


Error 15107 prevents users from downloading the QB or Payroll updates and interrupts other related operations in QuickBooks. To continue with these operations and download these updates, you must fix this error quickly. We will walk you through the suitable troubleshooting solutions to help you.

Solution 1: Install a Digital Signature Certificate


QuickBooks uses a digital signature certificate to authenticate that data has been encrypted by a private key and secured. The mismatch or unavailability causes the application to malfunction to prevent the installation of downloaded update files.

  • Look for the ‘QBW32.exe’ file in the folder and right-click.

  • Select the ‘Properties’ and click the ‘Digital Signatures’ option.

  • In the displayed signature list, select ‘Intuit’ and then click ‘Details.’

  • From the redirected ‘Digital Signature Details’ window, select ‘View certificate.’

  • Select ‘Install Certificate’ and click ‘Next’ until the finish is displayed.

  • Finally, click ‘Finish’ and restart your computer.

  • When done, try again to download the QuickBooks Desktop update and the Payroll updates.

Solution 2: Utilize the Run Quick Fix My Program


The Quick Fix utility closes the open background processes that QB uses and runs a quick fix in the program. Follow the steps given below to run the ‘Quick Fix My Program’ utility:


  • Go to Intuit’s official website after closing QuickBooks.

  • Get the most recent version (1.6.0.3) of Tool Hub and save this file.

  • Open the file you have recently downloaded (QuickBooksToolHub.exe) by double-tapping on it.

  • Install this file by following the displayed interactions and agreeing with the product’s terms and conditions.

  • When done, open the tool hub and select the ‘Program Problems’ menu.

  • In the pop-up menu list, ‘Quick Fix My Program.’

  • Once done, try again to download the QuickBooks or Payroll updates.

Solution 3: Restart Your Computer


Note: Ensure your computer is connected to a strong and stable network connection.


Restarting your computer helps to refresh the network settings without completely resetting them. If your computer is connected to a good network connection and network security settings are also correct, restart your computer to fix the common network connection issues.


Above, we have discussed the common causes and the suitable solutions you’ll require to rectify QuickBooks error 15107.
