I am running Quicken for Windows. This morning when I opened Quicken, the application went through an auto-upgrade process. After the upgrade the application states that it is using Version: R57.26 and Build: 27.1.57.26. My QDF File size is 84,000 KB. I am encountering numerous problems after the upgrade:
1. The file takes about a minute to load.
2. After the file loads it displays a new dashboard. However 4 of the 7 widgets in the dashboard report "No data to show" even when there is data available (for example the "Net Worth" widget). I cannot get any data to show no matter what time range I show.
3. I cannot perform a back up. I can get a dialog box when I choose "Backup or Copy File.,," But when I choose "Next", the dialog box disappears and no further action takes place. No backup is ever performed. In addition when I close the application, I am prompted by a "Quicken Local Backup Reminder." I choose "Backup" but the application simply closes without performing a backup.
4. When I choose "Validate and Repair File," I am prompted with a dialog box. I make my selections and click "OK" and then encounter warning messages: "Unable to close files. Quicken attempts to validate but then I get another warning. (See attached files.) Eventual a validation report appears that states: "QEL could not be copied, so it wasn't validated. Validation has completed." I then cannot reopen the file as Windows tells me "Quicken is not responding."
Note that "Sync" is OFF under "Quicken Moble and Web"
Are any other users experiencing problems similar to what I describe here?
How should I proceed from here?
