BuyX/SellX/DivX in converting from Windows to Mac

Question

I switched to a Mac from Windows in 2019 and once a year, I try migrating from Quicken Windows to Mac.  In the past, it either froze or was grossly messed up - but my most recent attempt today almost worked.

The only problem is that the various X transactions (BuyX/SellX/DivX) do not seem to record the corresponding transfer properly.

Is there some special step that I may be missing?

Thanks for the quick feedback, @Don Awalt and @RayL  and sorry to hear that things were way off for both of you.  I'll stop recommending this method other than for those for whom the cloud converter fails and there is no other method.  (I was fortunate in that all of my balances for 30 years of data were fine via QXF.  Looks like I was just lucky.)

But, thanks for the pointer to the other thread. I had not known that these transaction types are just plain missing from Mac.  I guess I will continue using Parallels and will resume the "try again next year" plan to see if further progress is made.

I just tried the QXF approach as well.  It seems much worse — even bank accounts w/o X transactions are off (including accounts that have no interactions with hidden accounts).  With the online converter, only investment accounts were off.  I am not quite sure what goes astray with QXF but it is definitely more problematic for my data set.
