    I just brought up the TIPS on my Quicken R24.14 -
    and I'm not seeing any floating ads..
    Any particular menu selection area that was causing these to appear ?
    EDIT - updating topic title wording to better reflect Q&A

    tnx - it might be related to the brand new R25.10 release...
    Is it the GUIDE or the VIDEO ?  (mine is R24.14 - so links might look different)

    doesnt sound like this is an "improved tour" to me

    Is this what you are talking about?


    (It does "float" to every screen you are on).  It doesn't get in my way much because I'm in full screen mode, and for the fact that I don't used it.  :) 

    BTW they are trying to sell me Deluxe when I already have Premier.

    But for the record this isn't the "Improved Tours".
    For that, on the Home tab:

    And this comes up:

    yes that is the "floater". i seems as though the 'tips and tutorials' tab is a built into the program version of the quicken.com website.. will check out the 'tours' maybe i can find what i need there. oh and i am viewing full screen myself and while it doesnt obliterate all of the info on the tips page it does affect most that involve a screenshot
