Hello All,
Thank you for taking the time to report this issue to the Community, although I apologize for any frustration or inconvenience experienced.
I also am seeing this behavior in Quicken when selecting the quicken.com icon from the ToolBar and have opened a ticket to report this issue to our Product Teams so it may be resolved.
In my testing, I was able to determine that the embedded browser is working correctly, however the URL is incorrect, causing the blank screen and preventing quicken.com from loading correctly.
While this issue is under investigation, I would recommend either bookmarking the quicken.com website (www.quicken.com) in your default internet browser.
Thank you again,
Sarah

yup - same here... QW R23.18Top screen header bar says "Internet"
then some toolbar icons
Bottom screen footer bar says "Connecting" -EDIT - also updated the topic title to better reflect the actual Q&A0 -
I HAVE Firefox properly installed and up to date. Been using Q2017 (Windows) for at least 2 years with Firefox. Now, with Subscription, it tells me don't use Internet Explorer and instead to install Chrome, Edge, Firefox. An ANNOYANCE!! How do I fix/set this thing so I don't have to click "Use Full Browser" button each time I go on line to do take a look at my accounts at the Chase website. I've been using Quicken since 1990, yeah back in the DOS days. Don't make this thing difficult....0

Have you tried making Firefox your default browser?Quicken Subscription HBRP - Windows 100
-
just following along -what are you clicking in Quicken that is an issue for FF0
-
Changed it to MS Edge and then changed it back to FF (just now). Rebooted my PC and the problem remains.0

I hit "Bank website" on the "downloaded" transactions tab.0

I've been accessing Chase Bank's webpage this way (periodically take a look at things) using this button, while FF has been my default browser for at least the last 2 years without this pop-up ever showing. Until I got and installed the subscription Quicken0

BillBr said:I hit "Bank website" on the "downloaded" transactions tab.Guessing this is what you are seeing.... and I have FF as my default -
and if you then click on [Full Browser] you then use the FF as expected.SO... the question is, what is Chase seeing as the "Quicken Browser" software ?
Just tried updating the URL in the Edit Account screen - and it was "blank",
so the Chase website URL info is embedded somewhere else, maybe just the FIDIR,
and the internal Quicken Browser is also embedded.

Yes, that's exactly what I see. I sort of got loss in the "tall grass" here as we got off the fairway and into the rough in your explanation. Sounds like you know a lot more about the inner workings of Quicken install than I do. Actually thought this problem would politely "go away" when I got the latest Quicken update (a day or so ago), but no such luck0

Just tried it again - and it appears normal... with the internal Quicken Browser.0

Nope, still get the same "Nag" pop-up here. Maybe this will clear itself, eventually, or maybe a future Update will address this. I'm just not gonna worry about it anymore today. Hey, "It's Friday" and nearly 5 o'clock. Thanks for pushing this thing along today.0

That's it... still naggin me here.0

If I may say so ... forget it. Some banks do not accept browsers other than the most popular browsers like Edge, IE and Firefox and maybe a few select others, depending on their programming. They do not recognize the niche product that Quicken uses as an internal browser. They don't want those products accessing their servers, to make life more difficult for hackers.I recommend you bookmark your bank's website directly in your favorite browser and do not use the link via the internal browser in Quicken.Of course, it would be nice if Quicken could change their programming so that a click on a bank website link in Quicken directly opens the Windows default browser instead of the internal browser.0

Have you recently activated a VPN? If so, try turning off the VPN. It might be causing this problem.

The URL qw.quicken.com/cgi-bin/qd.cgi/w/2017/menu_qcom/?version=2005&src=tb_qcdoes not respond, even if used in a Full Browser like Firefox.Somebody wake up Quicken Support and let them know about this issue.Until the programmers get this (apparently rarely, if ever, used) URL fixed, please use Quicken Support directly from your browser instead of from inside Quicken.

From the "blank screen" clicked Stop, then Full Browser.
