Name of Account Does not show completely

in Investing (Windows)
In my investment account the complete name of the account does not show - only a portion of it shows (in 2016 the complete name showed). Is there any way to have the complete name show when I open the register?

    There is nothing in Quicken Subscription that would have changed this. Have you looked at the name under Account List? Does it also show truncated? Can you provide a snapshot of the register heading that show the problem?

    This appears only to be in Investment accounts.  I have longer names in savings accounts and the full savings names appear.  The account full name shows in the account list and also in the account details

    Can you show the register with the problem?  I am able to see account names in my register with many more characters than you show in your attachment with no problems.

    I have attached a screen print of what shows up.  It only seems to be an issue for investment accounts (have checked 3 investment account and all have same issue but not savings accounts).  I the number of characters is the same but I replaced the account numbers with x's

    Quicken may not like the XXX. Since you don't want the account numbers, why don't you remove them from the account name?

    Is your window set to full screen?  How about if you close the account bar?
    Yes, screen is full screen and account bar makes no difference

    I actually have numbers there but for the purposes of the screen print I replaced them with x's

    How about In pop up mode?

    I don't know what pop up mode is
    I think, @Bob_L is asking about "popup registers" which show in a separate window.
    • To turn on (or off) select View / Use Pop-up Registers.
    Is it possible that there's an unprintable character between the "XXXX-XXXX" and "Joint Escrow" instead of a space?
    In my data file, Quicken always replaces "(€)" at the end of some of my account names with "..."

    Are the numbers in the actual account being replaced 1-for-1 with Xs?  Because in 2 different examples that you've shown, the account name seems  to end properly ... with "Joint Escrow".
    Where, exactly, is that truncated name showing up?

    Pop up register was checked as my normal setting and the account name was shortened.  When I unchecked pop up, the account name shows fully.  Would prefer to use pop up if I can get full name showing.

    That is really strange.  Could be corruption.  You might try adding a new investment account to see if it behaves the same way.
