Hello @ mellvic
Thank you for posting in the Community today, though I am sorry that you are experiencing this issue with the software. Quicken 2011 is a discontinued software and so does not have all the functionality and support features that it once did. It is difficult to say exactly why the software is shutting down at this time, as it is discontinued, and we do not have the proper tools to troubleshoot issues.
By chance are you ready to upgrade to the new software and subscription-based product? If so, please contact our SUPPORT TEAM. They will be happy to assist you with the process.
Thank You
- Quicken Diana
