    Hello @mjnaid,

    Thank you for contacting the Community, I am sorry that you are experiencing this error. 

    Before I can further assist you, I require some more information. What are the financial institution(s) with the accounts that won't update? What are the connection methods with the accounts that won't update? You can see the Connection Method by navigating to the Account>Settings gear in the upper right corner>Edit Account Details>Online Services>Connection Method.

    I look forward to hearing your response.

    Could you please create a test file and add the RBC Royal Bank account(s) to see if the error still occurs? Below are instructions on how to create a test file.

    Hello @mjnaid

    I am sorry to hear that this issue is still ongoing. Thank you for continuing to follow up with us about this.

    Where is your original data file located? You can check this by opening it via File > Open Quicken File... in the upper menu at the top of the screen, and then going back into the same menu and selecting Show this file on my computer... Make sure that the file is located on your computer, and not in a cloud-based storage service or an external drive of any kind.

    Next, have you tried validating the original data file? Save a backup by going to File > Copy or Backup File... in the same menu mentioned previously, and then follow the instructions below, in order:

    1. Navigate to File
    2. Select Validate and Repair File...
    3. Select Validate File
    4. Click OK
    5. Close the Data Log
    6. Close Quicken (leave it closed for at least 5 secs)
    7. Reopen Quicken and see if the issue persists.
    I look forward to hearing back from you after these steps have been taken.

    Thank you,

    Quicken Jared
