Red Flags many times do not go away.

Question

For many years the little red flags often do not go away.  This is especially annoying for accounts that are hidden on the account coloum as the whole "more accounts" has a flag too, in error.  I currently have a red flag that has been displaying for an old account for over a year.  I have tried turning off auto updates, as suggested, updating the account and verifing the file.  I basically have to ignore the red flags as they are meaningless. Any ideas?  Thanks.

Just toggling auto entry on and off several times did not help.  However, I noticed that when I toggled auto entry on, the cursor went to one specific entry.  So, I copied and pasted that entry with a different date, ie the next day, and then deleted the original entry.  Success!  I then changed the date on the copied entry to the correct day and all is well.  Thanks!

Try toggling the auto-entry option to ON. then check the register to see if it is there. If so delete it. Since it may be old, you might have to scroll back in time to see it. Then go back and turn auto-accept off.

Auto entry is off for the account that currently has a flag, I don't think I ever used that.  I am running R48.15 build 27.1.48.15 and auto updates states that I have the latest version.  Also, I tried deactivated auto download for the account but a message comes up that I have to accept all downloaded transaction of which there are none.  Thanks.
