How Stable is Windows Quicken R66.18?

I have a Windows 10 machine…thought I might finally test the waters with R66.18. I have stayed on R62.16 since last April due to the various issues posted in this forum in newer versions of Quicken.

I installed R66.18 using the Mondo patch this morning. It seemed to work ok until I tried Lifetime Planner 'Change Assumptions' where I get the below screenshot…

Similar prompts pop up if I open the Tax Planner, so back to R62.16 I will go…

    You've most like got an incomplete installation of R66.18.

    Try downloading and installing the R66.18 Mondo from here:

    BTW, I've had no problems with R66.18, other than my general distaste for the LTP because of bugs in it.

    Thanks for the suggestion, however as a rule, I only ever perform an update when a Mondo patch is available.

    I believe the issue may in fact be related to the following (as yet unresolved) issue…

    Hello @TangledWeb,

    Thank you for reporting the issues you are running into.

    I think you are right, this could be related to the known issue. Did uninstalling/reinstalling the software resolve the issue?

    Looking forward to your response!

    Hello Alyssa,

    Thanks for your help! Uninstalling/reinstalling does not resolve the issue. I have performed an R66.18 uninstall/reinstall on two separate occasions, each time with the same result above.

    My process for uninstall/reinstall on each occasion is:

    1. Uninstall Quicken using Revo uninstaller. Run 'QCleanUI' for good measure.
    2. Turn WiFi off and reboot.
    3. Install Quicken using a local copy of 2019 subscription installation exe file. Do not launch Quicken from installation program.
    4. Update Quicken using a local copy of Mondo patch for the version I am installing. Do not launch Quicken from installation program.
    5. Turn WiFi back on.
    6. Launch Quicken by clicking on my *.QDF file.
