Old account opening on start up

I have an old account that opens up on start up. I don't want to delete it as it is still an active account, just not my primary one. How do I get the primary account I use to open up when I start the program?

    Hi @Dennis Irvin

    To get a particular account to open up when you start Quicken (or to change the account to another account - in your case) follow these steps:

    1) Go to "Edit" > "Preferences";
    2) In the "Startup Location" box on the right click on the down arrow;
    3) Then page down to the "Bank Accounts" section and click on the bank account that you want Quicken to open on startup - (See the Snip below);
    4) Click "OK".

    The next time you start up Quicken, that bank account will open.



    Let me know if you have any followups.
