Issues creating a year-end copy [Edited]

John%%

I am running Quicken Classic Deluxe R65.20 Build 27.1.65.20 Edition Canada. When I run a YearEnd Backup I am unsuccessful in creating a new (smaller) file commencing on a date of my choosing (ie 2015-01-01). My current file dates back to 1995.

All of the data remains, everything remains in the new file and the new file and the old file are identical in size. My filesize is about 950,000 KB. My laptop has 32 GB ram. Is this considered a large file?

Validating and Repairing the file didn't indicate any problems, nor were subsequent backup efforts successful.

I hope there is a solution out there.

Hello @John%%,

Thank you for reaching out! To help troubleshoot, please provide more information:

• Are you trying to create a year end archive, a copy of your file, or just make a backup of your file?
• Are you seeing any error messages when you try to do this?
• Are you running into any problems that make you want to reduce your Quicken file size?

I look forward to your reply!
