In Reconciliation Beginning Balance Has Been Changed from Last's Months Reconcilation

I'm using Quicken 2019. I post my entries manually and don't download into my Quicken Product. I reconcile my bank accounts monthly and have been doing so with Quicken for years. From January 19, 2020 last reconciled to February 25, 2020 beginning to reconcile my beginning bank balance increased by $1171.29. I pulled my last reconciled report from January 19, 2020 and it is still showing exactly what the bank is showing. I've not deleted or changed anything in the register. The only difference that has occurred that should have no bearing on this program is I loaded my TurboTax 2019 which isn't interacting with Quicken for information.

    If the reconciled opening balance has changed, a reconciled transaction has been added, modified, or deleted.  To determine the source of the change, I suggest you compare the running balance of the account register in the current datafile with the running balance of the account register from a datafile backup saved when the account was last reconciled.  One way to do accomplish this is to print the registers to text files.

    Another possibility is that if you have run a file validation and Q made changes to transactions, that would possibly alter you reconciled balances. This is just another reason Q should thoroughly show and explain changes the validation sees fit to make without asking you.

    Nothing should be changed in our data without permission.
