Is there a quick way to delete the last 5-10 transactions. Just made them incorrectly

    Let me rephrase——-made an entry error that accidentally revised hundreds of files. Hoping there is an undo button somewhere?????

    There is no Undo in Quicken, other than restoring a recent backup.

    Because of this, it is a good idea to make backups frequently if you are modifying historical data.

    When you say you revised hundreds of files, do you mean hundreds of transactions in your data file, or something else? If you changed a Payee name or recategorized transactions, you may be able to change it back.

    The easiest "undo button" would be to restore your latest known-good backup file.

    I don't understand how one entry mistake revised hundreds of files. Quicken can only have one file open at a time and there is no process in Quicken to open and close files repeatedly without the user initiating each close/open.
