how can I revert to a previous version when bugs are in the latest version

quickuser88

The recent problem of mutual funds not updating till the next day began only after I allowed the most recent update. I didn't update for a week or so after it came out, but the next day the mutual fund update problem occured. It seems quite likely this last update is the problem.

How can I avoid the nagging for updates, and how can I roll back to the prior version?

This is exactly why I don't like forced updates.

H @quickuser88,

I understand your concern about an update potentially affecting the performance of the quote update function, but it doesn't in this case.  I am running an older version of Quicken on a second computer and it is having the same lag in mutual fund quote downloads.  So reverting to a prior version is not going to help you.

But I do understand your concern about "forced Updates".

Hang in there - they should be able to fix this delay issue soon.

If you download and save the patch releases like I do from latest patch , you can rerun it and revert to a previous release.

Those patches are available at: Quicken Patches

You can prevent "forced updates" by setting your Windows UAC to a higher level which will allow you to decide when you want to apply the latest patch.

BUT, as @Frankx stated, this current issue with mutual fund quotes downloading is not a Quicken release issue, but the quotes provider and is happening to all releases, just not the latest.

Thanks.

I do image backups and restored an older version into a temp directory and was able to run it. The about then said an older version and yet still had the same mutual fund issue. So, I guess I'll just have to wait like everyone else :(

Thanks man! You area a life saver. I just spent two days trying to get 'one step update' to work. Rolling back the update solved everything. I wish they wouldn't put these things out till they were adequately tested.
