Manually Match Transactions List - how to delete previously downloaded items

bdflood

After downloading transactions, some of my entries don't automatically match with the downloaded items so I click Edit, Match Manually. I then get a pop-up with a list of transactions to select. The item I want is in the list so I can select the checkbox, Accept Match, and be done. However, this list also contains a huge number of transactions that I've already downloaded and matched months or years ago. How do I delete these items from the Manually Match Transaction List? I'm running Quicken Classic Deluxe Version R52.28. I've tried a solution from a Quicken 2015 post that read, "To tell Quicken that an existing (non-investment account) transaction has already been downloaded (even if it hasn't been downloaded), right-click the transaction, hold down CTRL while left-clicking "Copy transaction(s)". Put a checkmark in the "Downloaded" box and a valid date in "Posting date". That transaction will then not appear in the Manual Match dialog." I've also tried "The proper key sequence is Shift+Ctrl, right click transaction, select Copy Transaction(s). " but this didn't work either.
