    Don't know if you had any success, but I finally just let it continue to run during the optimization and execution step. It took about 45 min to 1 hr and then finally finished.

    For those that finally got it to run - which release….. Help —> About Quicken

    as "latest" is meaningless, as it could be any R48.xx

    After the latest update the app will not open fully. It stays stuck on the blue splash screen with the Quicken logo.

    Re: Help > Report a problem

    I typed up a message here and attached about 100k of additional log and PNG files but received the following when I clicked Send to Quicken:

    "Unable to send report to Quicken, please try again."

    Why? This error message should provide useful information.

    Unsurprisingly it failed when I tried it again.

    I'm using Quicken R46.12 on Windows 10.

    @User5910 I am sorry about that. I would just submit the files requested first and then try the others.

    I finally cancelled it after 30+ hours. Quicken did start and I submitted a problem report under subject Patch & Upgrade. I attached all files available. According to Help → About, I'm using Version R48.9 Build: 27.1.48.9

    Is there a way to stop quicken from auto installing when opening? I just checked preferences and I don't see a setting to turn off auto install of updates.

  • Ps56k2

    @JohnB67 - the only way to prevent QWin from auto installing is to use the Windows security feature called User Access Control - UAC - to control, prohibit, and prompt you for any software updates to your system

    Here is how I was - unexpectedly - able to overcome (not fix) the problem.

    During the Nth (4th or 5th) attempt I killed the MSI Cleanup task under the Quicken task group when it reached that "Optimizing and Executing files" stage and hung there for about 5 minutes. I cannot reproduce the exact picture but imagine that it says "MSI Cleanup " instead of "Windows host process":

    After killing the task, the Setup window message displayed "Update successfull" and now I'm running version R48.9

    I hope, this helps the devs troubleshoot the problem.

    I killed the MSI Cleanup task and that worked for me too!

    Can't speak for everyone but it worked flawlessly for me.
