I have difficulty downloading new transactions to my accounts

efgrandi

For the past few days every time I go to update the transactions using One Step Update the process freezing and is no longer responding.

I also tried to update a single account and the same thing happened.

I have used Quicken since 1991 so there is a lot of data.

Is there a limit to how data there can be in the program itself?

I do use Dropbox to store my backup.

I need to update my accounts… help!

If you haven't done so already, please do the following actions:
• Even if you are on the latest software level already, download and install the latest Manual Patch file from https://www.quicken.com/support/update-and-patch-20182019-release-quicken-windows-subscription-product to ensure your Quicken software is up to date and correctly installed.
• Reboot Windows.
• Start Quicken. Do not run One Step Update.
• Run BOTH Validate and Supervalidate to attempt to repair your Quicken data file.
• If nothing helps, try to restore your Quicken data file from an Automatic or Manual backup taken just prior to the problems first occurring. https://www.quicken.com/support/how-backup-or-restore-your-quicken-data
 
Validate and Supervalidate instructions
First save a backup file prior to performing these steps
Validate: 
• Click File
• Select Validate and Repair File...
• Select Validate File
• If the data file contains investment accounts also select "Rebuild investing lots".
• If you suspect that a damaged Quotes Price History causes your problems, also select "Correct investing price history" functions "Delete" or "Repair and Rebuild".
• Click OK
• Close the Data Log
• Close Quicken (leave it closed for about 30 secs)
• Reopen Quicken and see if the issue persists.

Super Validate:
• Click File
• Press and hold both CTRL and Shift keys while you click Validate and Repair File...
• Select Supervalidate File
• Click OK
• Close the Data Log
• Close Quicken (leave it closed for about 30 secs)
• Reopen Quicken and see if the issue persists.

Hello,

I tried everything you suggested. Restoring a backup to a date prior to the created a nightmare in my register.

Is this a fix Quick should take care of?
