Linked checking account severed.

Using Q19 and I manually enter all transactions for all my accounts. My IRA/401K accounts were set up with linked checking accounts into which all investment interest payments went via IntIncx transactions. After loading my trusty Q19 onto my new PC, doing the updates required to get it to work on my new Windows 11 PC, everything appeared to be working correctly which was a pleasant surprise as I expected many more headaches.

But alas, after entering some cash interest transactions I discovered that now Q doesn't want to recognize the linked checking accounts on my IRA/401K. Thus now I get the IntInc instead of IntIncx transactions when entering cash interest earnings and the money doesn't go to the linked account anymore😵‍💫

After quite a bit of RTF'ing I do understand that Q now doesn't allow linked checking accounts in tax deferred accounts. And that mine was probably grandfathered in over several upgrades/updates since it was set up so long ago >20+ years ago. But now seems after my recent update, the linked account, while still there, is severed. And the "linked checking account" button has disappeared when I try to edit the IRA/401K.

Is there any problem with me moving forward with my interest transactions not going into the linked checking account anymore. From my reading I do understand it does go to a "cash" bucket in the IRA/401K so it's still there, just not reflected in a checking account (that never really ever existed anyway) Or is there a way to restore this link after the fact?

Thank you!
