How to save a file, data, copy... as a different name?
deex2
I use to be given the option to "save as" to where I could change the name of a file, but now that option doesn't seem to be there and or it has changed and I"m just not recognizing it.
I can see that I can make a copy, do a back up
How can I change a files name, lets say I'm currently working on a July file/info and want to save it as August without jacking up the whole file...?

Where is: "File > Save a copy as..."
If it's gone - WHY?
If it's hidden - WHERE?

From the R34.13 release notes at:
https://www.quicken.com/support/update-and-patch-20182019-release-quicken-windows-subscription-product
One way to achieve the equivalent functionality is to select
File > Show this file on my computer
, press
Ctrl + C
,
Ctrl + V
,
F2
, enter the new name, press
Enter
and
Enter
.

I use to be able to do Save AS and then save a copy of the file where I wanted and under a different name, but it doesn't seem to give me that option anymore unless I am just over looking it.
How can i change data/file name or save a copy of a data file... under a different name without jacking up the whole file?

I don't understand what you are trying to do. Why? You should keep using the same current data file and make backups each month or more frequently.

Note: Don't perform the copy if Quicken may be performing a scheduled update.

I have modified my earlier response to eliminate the possibility that Quicken may update the Quicken file as it is being copied.
