KEYBOARD SHORTCUT FOR BACKUPS (1 merged vote)

Before the break with Intuit, or so, there was a keyboard shortcut for "Save a Backup". I'm on the go with my laptop, and often save backups to a Google Drive folder providing add'l cloud backup. I miss this shortcut and would love to see it return. CMD/CTRL B. Thank you.

Thank you for the response and for providing that uninstalling and reinstalling didn't correct this issue.
Upon doing some further research on the issue, this bug appears to have been reported.
I do not have an ETA to provide on when to expect a fix but it has been acknowledged and the development team is aware.
Thank you,

Maybe so but in the meantime macOS allows you to assign your own keyboard shortcuts to any menu item. See Create keyboard shortcuts for apps on Mac - Apple Support

Since Quicken stopped using .NET framework I have had constant episode during One Step Update and Quotes downloads that the screen goes black. The progress box remains and says that Quicken is not responding. This last for several seconds and the normal screen is restored and the download ends successfully. Is there going to be a fix for this?
Thank you for taking the time to visit the Community to post your issue, although I apologize that you haven't received a response.
If you are still needing assistance with the "screen flicker" you are experiencing, I would start with uninstalling using the QcleanUI utility and then reinstalling the Quicken application.

Let us know how it goes!

It also goes to a Black Screen while backing up as well. And I have uninstall and reinstalled without fixing this problem. It has been introduced two or three R# back.
Before going to a Black Screen, it use to go to an all white screen.

I have the same issues as well. Not sure about the Net framework part but the rest is absolutely exactly the same

Alternatively, you could use a macro utility such as Keyboard Maestro ($36) to make a keyboard shortcut that would activate both menu commands.
