File=>Import browser window cannot find qfx files to select and import

I downloaded the file from Chase. I can see the file extension in my explorer window. But when I use the manual File-Import option in Quicken, it cannot find the files with the .QFX extensions.

I am selecting the "Quicken transfer format (QFX) file…."

I select

"Web Connect {QFX)…"

It finds the file, and I try to import, but nothing happens. The register does not show any new transactions.

So, I cannot seem to download transactions to a specific Chase Account. I tried to deactivate and reactivate the online options, but it will not let me deactivate as it said there are transactions that need to be accepted but they are not showing up. They also do not show up in the Online Center.

    Update. My manual QFX file I created at Chase had the dates of 9/1/2025 through 12/30/205. Even though the Web Connect import seemed to work, none of the transactions would show up in the register. I tried to deactivate and reactive the account but it said there were downloaded transactoins.

    It is a few weeks later so I went to Chase and did another manual download but expanded the data range from 9/1/2025 - 1/31/2026. It appears the download worked because I got the red flag. I looked at the register and the 9/1/2025 to 12/31/2025 transactions are now there but not the transactions in January.

    I went to the Online Center for this account and low and behold the January transactions on in the Online Center. How do I get these January transactions into the Register?

    I have automatic entry set to "on"

    Hello @ulvy,

    Thank you for reaching out! First, since the current year is showing in your register, but not last year, I recommend checking to make sure you don't have any filters active. If a filter is active, you should see the green reset button.

    Click that button to clear the filters, and check to see if that resolves the issue.

    Please let me know how it goes!

    There is no Reset button on my toolbar.

    I have a couple accounts that are not showing downloaded transactions. What is odd for one of the accounts I see the downloaded transactions in the Online Center. But when I click compare to register button, the register opens and there are no Downloaded transactions to compare. FYI. I did have automatically load transactions but I have also turned that off.

    Also, I tried to deactivate the account based on what the chatbot assist said to try but I get a message saying the account cannot be edited because there are downloaded transactions that need to be accepted.

    I also did a validate and repair. I made a backup and then told Quicken to open the backup. Nothing works.

    This is happening to every account I try to update (auto download) or import a file. The accounts have the red flag but no new transactions and I can see them in the online center.

    Not a solution to your issue, but a comment on doing the import. If you double click on the .QFX file in Windows File Explorer Download folder (or wherever you download to) , Quicken will import it without having to go thru the menu picks to initiate the import, it saves a few mouse clicks and I find it a lot easier.
