How to restore a backup

BernieC

Something is broken with Chase and I'll ask about that in another thread. BUT... I've tried to restore my system from backups [hell, that's why I make them] but when I restore from them it continues to be the current [broken] data. Specifically, it is August 6th. I restored from the August 2nd backup [it says that it the title bar] and yet, all my accounts say "Last update August 6th". So I tried with the July 30th backup. And again, Q still has the [broken] August 6th update. What do I have to do to get quicken to actually *revert* to a backup??

The last update date is not stored in your data file, so restoring a backup won't change it. Just ignore it.

Is that a Quicken created backup -
or a simple Windows File Copy 
if quicken created … File —> Restore  - and point to your USB drive and a specific file.
