<Bank Name> is reporting connection issues

Hi,

For the last 2 weeks I've been getting connection errors as shown in the attached whenever I do one step update. However all the accounts update fine. First it started with American Express. So to troubleshoot I disabled the online access to all my American Express accounts and then re-enabled them. Everything updated fine but now I get the same error with Citibank, but all my Citibank accounts are updating fine too. Just the error keeps showing up. Do you know what is wrong or how to get rid of this error?

    Hello @pin,

    Thanks for reaching out! There is currently an open ticket regarding these specific yellow error messages, and our teams are actively investigating a resolution. In the meantime, our development team believes the problem may be related to the runtime.dat file. They recommend trying the following steps to correct the issue:

    First, please run One Step Update. If the issue persists, follow these steps-

    1. Rename the runtime.dat file found at C:\ProgramData\Quicken\Inet\FILENAME\. (For example, add a 1 at the start of the file name, so that it reads 1runtime.dat.)

    2. Run a One Step Update (OSU) again to confirm the issue is resolved.

    Note - The Program Data folder is hidden by default. If you need instructions on unhiding the folder, you can find them on Microsoft's support site.

    I hope this helps!

    I'll have to give this a try for the weird AmEx message I have been getting recently.

    Thanks Kristina - Yes it worked for me, even errors with the $schedue $schedule.

    Hopefully this gets fixed to prevent the need for manual fix overall in the next update.

    Hi Kristina, The solution worked for me - temporarily. Since the "Citicards is reporting connection issues" notice first appeared, I have had to rename the runtime.dat file three times. It works for a few days, then the message reappears so I have to rename the file again. As with others, the account is downloading OK, so the message is just a nuisance. Thanks for keeping us updated.

    My "yellow" AmEx message went away after renaming the runtime.dat file just now. We'll see if it comes back. For now - no messages for any institution after OSU.
