Hi! How can I look at a copy of one of my automatic backups without restoring the backup? Thanks!

You can't; you have to restore it -- but that doesn't mean it will wipe out your current live file. What I suggest is renaming your current file first, to avoid any possible confusion. (And for double safety, make a copy of your live file.) Once you restore the backup, you can switch back and forth between the backup file and your live file via the File > Open pop-up menu.Quicken Mac Subscription • Quicken user since 19935
