I'm happy to report I have absolutely NO problems with Quicken this morning.
Of course, I haven't started it up yet.
For the record as requested above, I'm on Windows 10, Quicken Windows 2014, my lack of issues started in 2014, I have NO bank issues (I don't do downloads), I have NO error messages, everything for November was reconciled and I'm ready for my year-end statements.
OK, in all honesty, I did have a major failure when I tried to add some ticker symbols and Q buggered my price history back to January 2024, but I had good backups and manually re-entered the entire year for about 15 accounts. QW2014 does always report problems when I do Validate and Repair, but they aren't real. The only REAL problems are when Q internally corrupts my file causing me to have to restore from backup.
Se la vie.
Happy New Year to you all.
Further info: I haven't paid them ANY money since I bought QW2017 to which I have not yet committed my data, just playing around with it on another machine.
