How do I get patches with an expired membership Canada

Mike Hollosi

Does anyone know how or where I can get an April 2019 build - looks like R16.22

I purchased Quicken Home & Business with Premium Support
Platform: Windows PC Download for Canada in 2017
and subsequently upgraded with QUICKEN HOME & BUSINESS 2019 DOWNLOAD SUBSCRIPTION CANADA in May 2018, which was being automatically updated.

I let my subscription lapse in May 2019. I have unfortunately lost my version of Quicken.

Trying to reinstall I have found two options:
1. latest download 2019 R22.29 build 27.1.22.29 Canada, Feb 2020.
It complains that my version is too new so I should go back to April 2019 version.

2. original download 2018 R1 Build 27.1.1.36. Dec 2017.
It works but will not let me perform patch updates.

Does anyone know how or where I can get an April 2019 build - looks like R16.22

These are all builds for Canada

Thanks in advance

Hi @""Mike Hollosi" ,

See:http://www.quicknperlwiz.com/quickenpatchescanadian.html

Scroll down and see Release R16.22 Mondo.

Another choice, you can re-subscribe as a New User, around a Holiday to save money.

Thanks, creator, for making the patch available. Unfortunately, the patch can't be performed without an active subscription. :-(

Hi @""Mike Hollosi" ,

Suggestion:  https://www.acronis.com/en-us/personal/computer-backup/ 

Get Acronis True Image or similar product and create Full Images as oppose to Incremental Images of your operating system. So if you can't start the operating system, you can boot to the Bootable Rescue CD to restore the operating system.

Especially useful, when you allow your Subscription to lapse.

I have never seen that before.  Can you post a screenshot of the error message it puts up?

@Mike Hollosi I think I might have a way for you to proceed.  At least it works with an expired US subscription.

If you go to this web page it will allow you to download the latest install.  When I did that for the US version it allowed the install and even updated to the latest version.  And I was able to connect to an expired US subscription and use the program.

I would still like to see the screenshot of the patch failure message (from installing the manual patch), just to see if they are actually blocking them and what it looks like.

Here is what I get when I try to install the latest patch. If I follow the link, https://www.quicken.com/support/reinstalling-and-patching-your-quicken-subscription-version-after-your-membership-has then I only get a choice of US version patches

If I try to update using QWCA27.1.16.22MPatch.exe, then i get another error:
"Your need membership to perform the requested action."

Hi @""Mike Hollosi" ,

Try installing:

Release R16.18 Mondo
Release R16.16 Mondo

One of those may work.

"For example, if your Membership expired in January, you could download the version released in December but not the version released after January."

R16.8 worked perfectly. Thanks again, creator, and thanks for keeping tabs.
Like your ImportQIF as well, use it all the time.

@Mike Hollosi "  Thanks for posting the screenshot of the error.  Something for people posting here to keep in mind.

So they do seem to be actively blocking the newer patches.  It is interesting that I was able to install the latest US version (the actual install not just a patch) from their website (link in my above post) without any problem and with an account connect to an expired license.

That still might be a way for you to get to the latest version on the Canadian version.

Unfortunately I don't have an account associated with an expired Canadian license to try it on.  I had one when from when I did a beta on it, but I have long ago thrown away the information on what account was used and such.
