For some time now I have had issues with the Portfolio X-Ray in opening this feature. I have received the same error message as follows: "Invalid User ID\u003cbr/\u003eError in decrypting the UserID - Auth Token not found\u003cbr/\u003eCannot Authernticate - User not found". My version is Quicken Primier Version R6:12 build 27.1.6.12.

    If you haven't already, I suggest that you reset X-Ray:  exit Quicken, set the variable ResetXRay to 1 in the Xray.INI file located within the hidden \ProgramData folder, start Quicken and select Get Started in the Portfolio X-Ray views on the Investing tab.

    I have not been able to locate the hidden \Programdata folder in my quicken folder; searched both Quicken and subfolder under quicken, after changing the search to locate hidden files.  Can you provide a path to the folder?

    This error occurs
    when you created your XRay under one Quicken ID, then changed to a different
    Quicken ID in your file (Edit > Preferences > Quicken ID, Mobile &
    Alerts). 

    You can reset this
    manually, if you don't want to change back to the original Quicken ID:

    1. With Quicken closed, use
      Windows File Explorer and go to

      C:\ProgramData\Quicken\Inet\Common\Localweb\Xray or

      C:\ProgramData\Intuit\Quicken\Inet\Common\Localweb\Xray depending on
      your Quicken version
    2. Double-click XRay.INI to open it with Notepad
    3. Change ResetXRay=0 to ResetXRay=1 and Save the change (Ctrl + S)
    4. Open Quicken and go to the
      Investing tab to select XRay and click Get Started button.

    Tamara in an older message thread here in the Community)

    I had to change my email address last year and have confirmed that it is correct in Quicken as well as my Account. The data that is in the XRay.ini is FirstAfterInstall=0 and LastTimeWasInvalid=0, which have I have changed both as well as each and neither changes have worked.  Both statements were changed back to "0" when I reopened Quicken.  The statement "ResetXRay" is not listed in this file.  This file was originally set up on 10/17/2017; not sure if that has any bearing on this issue.

    If resetting the Quicken ID did not work, I would try adding the assignment to ResetXRay I suggested earlier.  

    If the issue persists, I suggest you perform a clean uninstall, install and update.  If you haven’t already, you may want to review: https://www.quicken.com/support/using-qcleanui-uninstall-quicken. To update Quicken, I recommend that you download and apply the Mondo Patch: https://www.quicken.com/support/patching-updates-windows

    Neal,

    I think the trick is when you edit XRay.ini file, if the ResetXRay line is not present, add ResetXRay=1 to the file, save it, then open Quicken and see if that solves your problem.

    I have added the RestXRay=1, as the second and fourth lines, saved, and reopened Quicken, selected Investing, then refresh XRay, the open page came up, selected "get start", which opened up the agreement, selected approve and depressed the continue button, and received the same error code as before.

    Ummm, you said "I have added the RestXRay=1"

    Is that just a typo in your post or did you really spell that incorrectly in the INI file?

    ResetXRay=1              Reset..., not Rest...

    Did you leave all the remaining lines unchanged, whatever they were originally?

    Most likely a typo at that time.  This is what I have done since yesterday:
    Twice removed and reinstalled Quicken 2018 from disc received last year, (file dated 8/27), as well as twice removed and reinstalled Quicken from my account on line, (file dated 10/17).  With all installations the XRay.ini file was not loaded in the XRay folder, at which time I added the line ResetXRay=1, and in all of the restarts the line was changed to "0". I made no other changes to the file.  Each time when I reopened the program, I could get to the legal page and after that it gave me the same error. I do have a 2017 disc, which I could install under a new folder name, but I am not sure if that would further cause problems.  Also, because each time I could get to the legal page, and the problem after that gave me the error, it sounds to me that the error is caused by another file in a different folder/file, therefore not sure if reinstalling 2017 would help.

    This exact thing happened to me. I added the resetxray=1 got the get started screen and still had the error code.

    Anything else I can try to get this xray working? I am having the exact same issue as Neail and I did not have a type mistake. This is very frustrating

    Assuming that your Quicken software is installed and updated to the latest available patch release level ...

    If you haven't done
    so already, I'd say it's time to contact Quicken Support via Chat or Phone and
    request help.
