I need to enter a data file password to open my backup. (Quicken crashed while I was working on it.) I don't believe I even have a data file password. How to get to my files?

I suggest you attempt to open an recent Quicken file backup that does not require a data file password.0

How to get to my files?Hi @Zoe50 ,You can't open a Backup File, without problems.You can Restore a Backup File, under a different name, from the original data filename.thecreator - User of Quicken Subscription R46.12 (HF1) USA & Quicken 2017 HBRP R20.6 USAWindows 10 Pro 32-Bit Build 19045.2486

You can open a backup file if you change the file extension from .QDF-backup to .QDF.Quicken Subscription HBRP - Windows 100

I keep forgetting about cloud sync since I don't Quicken Mobile or Quicken on the Web. The problem with restoring is that you can exceed the dataset limit if you do it too many times.Quicken Subscription HBRP - Windows 100
