Deluxe update was wrong version

This is just a heads-up in case it happens to other folks, so they know they are not alone. Today I clicked on the "update available" button in my Quicken Deluxe and the update it installed was the "Home, Business and Rental Property" version. What a headache. Couldn't open Quicken. My backups were rendered incompatible. I spent over an hour cleaning it all up, uninstalling, cleaning the registry, downloading the appropriate file from my account page on the Quicken website. I'm still a big fan of Quicken and what the new ownership has done and is doing, but this glitch was a pain. FYI.

Hence, my post. Sorry for being an ignoramus.
If you were to be a new user of Quicken and bought it in a box. After it was installed and prior to logging in with your Quicken Id and using the activation code to tell Quicken which edition you purchased, the title bar at the top left corner would indicate that you have Home & Business edition. Once the activation code is applied and you register, it would change to the correct edition.
