Just updated to version R57.26 and receiving "Write Failed. So not flushing data to the file" error. I reviewed recent post indicating Windows Ransomware issue, but I'm running McAfee Virus Scan. How can I solve this?
If you haven't done so already, please do the following actions:
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 • Review the Data Log. Anything interesting in there, worthwhile posting here? • 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 • Review the Data Log. Anything interesting in there, worthwhile posting here? • Close Quicken, leave it closed for about 30 secs • Reopen Quicken and see if the issue persists.
Help us out here, please. What is the complete Path name to your Quicken data file? Drive letter + Path + File Name + Extension, please, (e.g., C:\Users\username\Documents\Quicken\QDATA.QDF)?
Is any cloud backup service accessing your files? Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox, etc.? By default, OneDrive should be active on your system and accessing your \Documents folder.
path to data file c:\users\owner\quicken files
no cloud backup service is accessing files
file extension is .qdf
updating the latest patch solved the problem; when I super validated one of my accounts updated with a very negative balance. I re-opened my last backup file and now back to business.
