How do I fix issue where custom portfolio views will not save and default views are gone

Here the the symptoms of this issue:
I don't know the exact date, but sometime with the last month, Portfolio view under Investing has stopped working correctly. Also, Quicken now often crashes when I select "Investing". When it doesn't crash, all that is presented under Portfolio view is just the list of my accounts - no column values are displayed. My previous customized Portfolio view is now gone. Under the "Show" dropdown, there are no default or custom options presented - just an empty dropdown. I can create a custom Portfolio view but it will only be available until I exit Quicken. If I exit and restart Quicken, any custom Portfolio views I created are gone. The first time I try to select the Investing menu after I have restarted Quicken, Quicken always crashes. When I restart Quicken again after that crash, I can get to Portfolio under Investing but that is when I will see that all the custom views I previously created are gone. The default Portfolio views have never reappeared since I first noticed this problem.

    I just installed the latest version of Quicken on my windows 10 laptop and am having exactly the same issue with the exception that quicken is not crashing when closing and reopening. The link above was not helpful.

    Hello @RV77

    Thank you for the response and the additional details, although I apologize that you did not find the above steps helpful in resolving your issue.

    At which part of the steps were you unsuccessful? Were you unable to restore a backup prior to updating?

    If you haven't rebooted Windows since you installed the latest software update, please do so now and then try Quicken again.

    Still not working?
