Yesterday, Quicken released R50.15 and I updated. Now every time I click the add attachment icon to a transactions it crashes. I relaunched and tried to submit use the Help > Report a Problem is fails.

I relaunched and bugs still occur.

I reinstalled and bugs still occur.

Does Quicken fully test these releases before deploying or do they function like a DevOps and push out updated immediately and deal with the issues as customers report them?

Quicken should give all customers a discount for having to deal with this poor development process.

    Thank you for the assist. It turns out that my bi-weekly which is broken down in detail did not have categories for an FSA account and a 401k account. I think it occurred when I had an issue with the FSA and 401k account and I deleted them and recreated this. Would this cause the category to become blank?

    When I went in and correct the split data and entered the accounts for the missing FSA and 401k for the salary it messed up all of my checking account balances with major negative balances. Why would this happen?
