Backup not working now

Mitchell R Holliday

I used to be able to backup my files to an external hard drive. But now when I try to backup I get a message "Files Not Backed Up". How to I fix??

Hi @Mitchell R Holliday,

Here's the Quicken suggested process to address the "Files Not Backed Up" error.  Bascially you'll need to make a copy of your file and do a "validate & repir routine on that copy.  Then you'll need to potentially address whatever error(s) are found.  the step by step guidance is here https://www.quicken.com/support/error-backing-data-file-file-not-backed.

Get back to me if you have any follow-up questions. Good luck!

Hi @Mitchell R Holliday,

See this FAQ:  https://community.quicken.com/discussion/7307115/add-your-quicken-information-to-your-posts-plus-how-you-are-connected-to-the-internet

Have you checked the amount of room available as Free Space on that particular Hard Drive?
