    3. find the portfolio you want to delete and click on Manage portfolio at the right. This will show the details of your portfolio.
    4. At the top you will see Manage Web portfolio and the portfolios's name. Next to that, click on Edit name/currency
    5. change the portfolio name to one with no spaces, then click on Save changes
    6. Go back to Manage portfolios and Watchlists, you should see the renamed portfolio.
    7. Click on the X next to the portfolio name
    8. Confirm the deletion
    After that is done and if you haven't done so already, please do not forget to deselect the option to update investing.quicken.com in One Step Update Settings.

    You might see if this discussion helps -- https://getsatisfaction.com/quickencommunity/topics/how-do-i-remove-an-account-from-intuits-investin...
    I am not sure the browser limitations are applicable currently, and there probably have been other changes -- but maybe?

    I'm also having this issue, I've tried IE and chrome, neither work. This is ridiculous we're still having an issue that's 3 years old!!!!

    OK, take a slightly different track-  It used to be you could Add a new portfolio with exactly the same name and delete using red X; you still can delete, but do not return to the Manage screen, use the Delete link in the screen that created the new portfolio.image

    Having the same issue. I should NOT have to rename something just to delete it.

    Worked.. until the next sync... then they came back.. AND I'm missing one of my Portfolios that I do want!  The "Select accounts to view online" clearly has NO effect...

    Works, but what a crazy workaround!
