Uploading historical currency rate in new version

BevC

Not able to import historical USD currency via emc file anymore. Is there a solution or can I get the prior version of quicken ?

Hello @BevC,

To assist with this, please provide more information. When did you first notice this change? Do you recall which version of Quicken you were using when this happened? What process were you using to import emc files into Quicken? When I check our Support and Help Articles, they make no mention of that file type:

https://help.quicken.com/display/CAN/Import%2Bdata%2Binto%2BQuicken

If you recall which version of Quicken you were using when importing emc files stopped working, then you can backup your Quicken file, then use this article to roll back to an earlier version of Quicken:

I look forward to your reply!

Hi. I dont remember which version but it wasn't the one that says 'Classic'. I update it in Sept. Usually I enter the monthly rates data into the quicken program 'Emc' files and upload it into the USD currency. The data is in the file but Quicken is not uploading.

Thank you for your reply @BevC,

To clarify, you have been going into Program Files, navigating to the Quicken folder, and manually editing the EMC.IMP file? What is the exact file location you are navigating to when you edit the file? Are you unable to update the history using the Import function in the Currency List (Tools>Currency List)?

Thank you!

Hi. Yes, I manually update the quicken Emc.imp file, save it. Then use the import function in currency list to import. I did not have to specify file location. I did not have to do anything else.
