Quicken requires password

rmdenmark

Since my last update, quicken requires a password every time I access my file. I've read the community posts about logging out and back in, but quicken continues to ask for a password. Can this be stopped or will it be fixed. It's very inconvenient and rather than improving security it lessens security as I tend to login and leave quicken active.

Did a password get set on the data file somehow? File Menu?

thanks for the response Splasher - I don't know, but I'll check it out.

No. when I click on set password for this file, use file without password is checked. Same for use password for transactions.

Try going to Edit→Preferences→Quicken ID and do the login as different user to reset what Quicken remembers to be the Quicken Id currently registered.

Thanks mshiggins - the response from Quicken Jasmine gives me hope that this will be addressed and corrected.
