Fidelity accounts still incorrectly handling cash in Quicken Classic Mac in 9.2.1

Sorry for starting new thread. Could not add comment to existing announcement. This post indicated the issue would be fixed in the August Quicken Mac update. My experience, if anything, the issue is worse than before. @Quicken Anja @Quicken Kristina, is it believed the issue should have been fixed by release Version 9.2.1 (Build 902.61841.100)? One thing I just don't understand is why the logic to do this correctly, which I understand is the case for Quicken Classic Windows, is not 100% identical, even the code, in the Mac version?

Building on MarkFQ's comment… I, too, am using the Mac version of Quicken Classic Deluxe, Ver 9.2.1 and Mac OS 26.6.2. I do NOT use Quicken Bill Pay. A few months ago, my Cash Management Account began screwing up my cash Balance for the MMA QPIQQ. Every time I entered a payment, that amount was duplicated by a sale for the same amount from QPIQQ (and my cash Balance). And, if I made a deposit, QPIQQ added a transaction of a BUY, for the same amount. In other words, my cash balance ultimately did not change in either case. My fix has been to deleted every one of those QPIQQ transactions as soon as I saw them, so that my cash Balance would be correct.

It seems to me that either Fidelity or Quicken should have fixed this by now. The promised fix enabling me to identify whether QPIQQ should be a security, or a MMA was ineffective. No matter what I did made it so much worse and complicated. It was not a good fix, it did nothing but confuse matters much worse than just manually deleting the QPIQQ entry.
