Does Quicken store the Validate reports/logs?

If yes, can someone tell me where to find them?

Thanks.

I have no idea what you're asking about. Can you provide more details, please?

Quicken damaged a couple of accounts when I upgraded to 50.14. I ran Validate and I think it fixed them (not quite sure yet, seeing some odd behavior this morning). I want to go back and re-read the report that Validate generated, but it appears to have been overwritten when I ran Validate again to confirm all was well. I'm trying to find out if the Validate reports are stored and accessible in a Windows directory, and if so, where.

Does this clarify?

Thanks. It was actually the OLD_LOGS file that contained the historical info.

Seems that the upgrade to 50.14 caused a bit of a mess:

QDF:
Validating your data.
Repaired your data file by removing a damaged category. Please check your category list for missing categories by going to Tools>Category List.
Quicken repaired Crate and Barrel Mastercard XXXXXX account. No action required.
Quicken repaired damaged transaction index. No action required.

Summary:
Quicken repaired 1 accounts. No action required.

Action actually was required. The damaged category caused a CITI banking account to disappear without a trace, which is why I ran Validate in the first place. Validate restored it by fixing the damaged category, but it needed to be renamed and re-linked to the online account. Seemed everything was OK last night, but I began getting CC501 errors from CITI this morning. At one point it connected (even thought I still got the 501 error), and Q created a copy of of the "lost" account. I deactivated/reactivated the original, hid the copy, then started getting CC800 errors. More machinations, and it all SEEMS ok now. We'll see.

Thanks again for your help.
