Suspicious files in my, "C:/Program Files (x86)/Quicken" directory. (See attached screen prints.)

Is "BugSplat" (BsSndRpt.exe) supposed to be a part of Quicken?
Is "BouncyCastle.Crypto.dll" supposed to be a part of Quicken?

If these are viruses, how do I delete and reinstall Quicken? I am subscription user.

The BugSplat files are all included in my Quicken program directory too and as far as I know are completely legitimate, handling problem reporting back to Quicken. 

I don't have the BouncyCastle file but a quick search on the file name suggests it's a legitimate encryption process of some sort.  Do you have some sort of encryption programs installed on your computer?  If you've ever created a "sanitized" Quicken data file, and this is a pure guess, I could see an encryption process getting installed as part of the creation of the sanitized file.

I do have the BouncyCastle file in my Quicken program directory.

while waiting on an answer I deleted all the bug Splash files all three of them. After deleting them the Quicken file would not open. I restored the bug Splash files and now the Quicken file opens.

Since you guys are not worried about these files and I assume you're more experienced than I am, I'm going to drop the paranoia and get on with life. Thanks for your Insight!
