QFX import broken after update to R65.17 (Vanguard OL-221) [Edited]

Thank you.
I got a little lucky to find an old Vanguard download that imported w/o any problems. That helped a lot to figure out what changed.
Apparently Quicken does not have a Vanguard account for testing. If they did, they would have seen right away what the problem was. Quicken, if you're listening, consider getting a Vanguard account. I know you can't enroll in every financial institution but Vanguard is a big one - you probably have lots of customers who get upset if the Vanguard import breaks.
By the same token, Vanguard should have a copy of Quicken to test imports if the QFX output code changes. I think it's on sale at Walmart now :) . They also could have quickly figured out what had happened and avoided this whole situation.
Thank you though, Vanguard, for the quick turn around.
As I said earlier, this was not a Quicken problem. In fact, I think Quicken handled it pretty well. They opened an issue and the Quicken error messages posted here were relevant. I didn't notice those message until after doing the debugging grunt work - they would have saved some time.

I just tried to download from Vanguard and import QFX. I still received the same message. I did a search for "
<INCOMETYPE>REINVEST" and did not have any text in my QFX file. Not sure what the next steps are (wait for quicken ?)

What do you see in the quicken log files when you import this download? Anything that might be relevant?

I had the same sequence that I experienced last time. When I double-click on the QFX file, I get a message that the "feature you are trying to use is on a network resource…." and wants me to identify the quicken.msi file location. I don't have the MSI file and not sure why it wants me to reconfigure quicken. I also tried to reassociate the Qfx file with quicken app (even though it is the default app) and got the same message. I am a windows 10 user on latest update with quicken ver. R65.17 Build 27.1.65.17
Not sure exactly what to look for in the quicken log files. The ".QXF file import results" indicates that there are no file import results.
This was working (early November?) and failed recently - along the same time that others reported on this message thread.

That's a different problem than I and some (most?) others were experiencing. As a workaround, can you try to import the QFX file using the File/FileImport/WebConnect(QFX)File menu option? That might be enough to avoid the problem you are seeing even if it doesn't fix it.

Hello @qkn-aficionado,
Thank you for chiming in and providing those details. The issue you described appears to be the same as the one discussed in this thread. There is already an open ticket (CBT‑931/CTP‑15415) being worked on, though we do not have an ETA for a resolution at this time.
Some users have reported success by following the instructions outlined in one of my earlier responses within that thread.
Thank you!

I restarted quicken and re-tried the import (as you suggested), File/Import/Web Connect and it worked !
I had been trying to import it by double-clicking on the downloaded file (which has worked in the past).

@qkn-aficionado Thanks for the update, glad to hear that worked!
For those still experiencing issues importing QFX files from Vanguard specifically and receiving the OL-221 Error—Our teams have just requested if one of you could please submit one of the Vanguard QFX files itself via Help > Report a problem > Additional files… so we can include it in the escalation ticket.
Please let us know once you have done so, thank you!
