"Add Account" prompts for closed accounts during online update cycle

Earlier this week--I believe it was timed with the most recent Quicken software update--I noticed that every time I run an online update, I am prompted with an "Add Account" window for the login credentials for six different accounts that I have previously marked as closed in Quicken over the past couple of years (and therefore these accounts should have been disconnected from online updates).
What is particularly frustrating is I need to cancel out of the window for each account, AND confirm that I intend to cancel--there isn't a way to cancel out of everything at once. If anybody has a temporary workaround, I'd appreciate it, although I suspect this is something that will need to be permanently fixed in an upcoming update release...

Hello @BlueFreak,
Thank you for reaching out to the Community about your issue, though I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing this.
Do you have a recent pre-update backup you can restore? To start with, I suggest restoring a backup file to see if the same issue occurs in the restored file. If needed, please, review this support article. Scroll down until you see Quicken for Windows and open the blue dropdown section(s) titled Restore Quicken data and/or Restore an automatic backup for instructions on how to restore a backup.
Let us know how it goes!

I had the same issue with a closed HSA account. Clearing the FI name from the account dialog (as suggested here: https://community.quicken.com/discussion/comment/20224327#Comment_20224327) seems to have resolved the issue for me.After clearing the FI name, I ran an OSU ... and no prompt for credentials to the closed acct.We'll see what tomorrow brings.

Quick follow-up from my prior post ... no issue with that HSA account this morning either.
