NOTHING in the installation or function of the software is different, except the sign-on requirement, and what seems to be a version check as a part of that process.ģ)This is to increase revenue for the investment group that bought Quicken, which they then hope to flip for a 10-20% profit. I just need the functionality and reporting.Ģ) See previous statement: I do understand this is a new revenue model in the software industry.

I'm a financial professional, and have used Quicken since 1986. That program is 4 years old!"ġ) NOTHING in the new version is necessary for me. The failure I was having also displayed this behavior before crashing, but it wouldn't open a log-in screen either.įor those who say "It's about time. You now HAVE to log in with your user ID or your file will not display. The installer for 2017 looks EXACTLY like the installer for the newest 2021 Subscription version. Something in the startup sequence has changed. Quicken just made any other alternative too painful and/or time consuming.Ī) I even waited on hold for 20mins to chat with support No luck.Į) It got to the point today where a NEW FILE would not work.Ģ) I finally succumbed to the 50% off enticement for Black Friday, but not willingly.

I) I tried multiple iterations and combinations of older Windows systems. Up until now, it has been rock solid bullet proof.ĭ) Running it on a different computer did not work.ĭ) Running Quicken in Compatibility mode did not work.

NOTHING I tried would provide a work around. Legacy Quicken Users - you're probably in for the same experience.ġ) about a week ago, my Quicken 2017 Home and Business application would crash. I've resisted this upgrade until today, when it became IMPOSSIBLE to run Quicken 2017 on my Windows 10 system.
