Can an update be rolled back?

Question

I have Quicken 2017 Deluxe and when I opened it, it asked me if I wanted to update it.  I said yes, but now it's wanting me to open it with a backup file.  I'm not finding a backup file from the last time I used it and did a LOT of work.  So, I'm hoping that I can roll back the update so that I can open it, do a backup, then re-apply the update.  Is that possible?

To roll back an update, we actually uninstall Quicken, install Quicken while disconnected from the internet and update Quicken to a specific release patch.

Quicken usually does ask us to save a backup before we update just in case something goes wrong.  The question I have is why is Quicken asking you to open it with a backup file?
