It seems like an Alert method/system would help ease user tensions when an update turns out to be faulty. I think this could be an email to users, a popup on Quicken launch, and immediate post on the community forums.
Here is an example situation that I think would have benefited from such an alert.

As you can read, a lot of users discovered the issue and worked hours to get their data restored. I think many could have avoided the install with an appropriate notice. Thanks!

I think what you are describing is the "Alerts, Online Banking & Known Product Issues" section of the Community here
https://community.quicken.com/categories/alerts
The issue you describe is there, but as you can see it was buried quite quickly among the online banking issues. I think it would be a good idea to put the banking issues in a separate section so the alerts and product issues get more prominence.QWin Premier subscription1 -
Hopefully the community will get behind an idea like this and push it up in votes.

YES! This would be much appreciated and easier than looking through several different threads. I DO NOT UPDATE until I read about what folks here post. That is why I am still on R38.30. Voted!0

@Ron Varley R39.23 appears to be quite stable. I'm been on it since early March without incident.
