How to customize categories in report without selecting all categories

Question

When I select Customize report and choose Categories, all the selections are checked, not just the ones I had selected in the original report. That forces me to start all over to select categories. How can I customize the Categories showing only the categories originally selected? I am using Quicken Classic on Windows 10.

How are you selecting that report?  From the list of "canned" reports, or from the "My saved reports" list?

It sounds like you're repeatedly using the "canned" report.  Instead, after customizing the report, you should save it … and for subsequent usages select from the Saved reports.
