Lost Transactions?

I have been entering data into my checking account register for about 6 weeks.  I just logged on to update the register data and most of the data is gone.  What has happened.  I did notice when I logged on that I got a program update.

    Hello @oliver60

    Thank you for reaching out on the community and telling us about your issue. I do apologize for the issue you're having. That is quite odd I'm wondering if it may have created a new file at random. The easiest way to get everything back though should be to take a look and try restoring a backup. I'll leave steps on how to do so down below.

    Once you've had a chance to try this let us know what you're able to find out. If this doesn't work we'll see what we can try next.

    Thanks,

    Quicken Francisco

    I have also lost transactions. I know they are there because I am able to reconcile to a current balance. The account summary shows a balance for that account as of April 2020, and any transactions I enter disappear after a few minutes. I see no filter or hidden account setting. So far I can only find one account affected.

    Sooner or later it happens to us all. When it happened to me for the first time, I had moved the mouse across the column header lines and accidentally clicked while moving across one of the header fields, on the way to a menu bar item ... Oops! Clicking the Date column header resolved the issue for me. :blush:
