Version R22.17, Build 27.1.22.17 - OSU Summary error message [edited title for clarity]

psbeavers

After doing One Step Update, I am receiving an "Unable to Update Bills" error. My online accounts are updating as they should and I have NO "Bills" linked to online accounts. I have been receiving this error for a long time, but I thought it was going to be corrected with one of the software updates, but it hasn't happened.
It doesn't cause me any problems, it's just distracting to see an error message.

The One Step Update Summary displayed is maintained in the runtime.dat file within a datafile specific folder in the hidden ProgramData folder.  For example, C:\ProgramData\Quicken\Inet\Qdata.000\runtime.dat  From your description, it appears the runtime.dat file is not updating correctly.  I suggest you exit Quicken, rename the runtime.dat file, open Quicken, examine the One Step Update Summary to confirm you have renamed the appropriate runtime.dat file, and perform a One Step Update to recreate the runtime.dat file.  If all goes well, you may remove the renamed file.

At the bottom of the OSU Summary screen, there's a checkbox with text "Show just the last update".

If there is no checkmark in this box you will be seeing old error messages from previous OSUs.

The folder name given in @Sherlock 's reply varies by Quicken data file name. Instead of looking for a subfolder \Qdata.000 look for a subfolder with your file name. On my computer, I have 2 recently used files, named UKR and Test, and I have two subfolders, \UKR and \Test ...
Not knowing if that may cause any unwanted side effects, I'd be very careful about messing with this file.
