Hello @Richard Sw,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community to tell us about your issue, though we apologize that you are experiencing this.

Could you please provide which version of Quicken you have currently running?

I would just like to gain some clarification to better understand the root cause of your issue in order to better assist further.

Since you mentioned you received this error message from OneDrive - Do you by chance have your data file stored in a OneDrive folder on your PC, or have your PC's hard drive auto-synced to OneDrive?

If you don't mind, could you please verify/confirm the exact location pathway of where your Quicken data file is currently stored in your Windows File Explorer (e.g.: Quicken data files' default location is in the following pathway; C:\Users\"Username"\Documents\Quicken - see illustration below)?

Some issues that users may experience with Quicken can be caused by storing your data file on an external drive/online-based backup drive folders/locations such as OneDrive, DropBox, iCloud, etc. to name a few as examples.

Please, check back and let us know.

(C:\Users\dsnow\OneDrive\Documents\Financial\Quicken\BACKUP)

The file causing the problem had a red X on it, so I deleted the file and solved the problem without impacting my Quicken.

Best regards,
Richard
