W7, Q12D, for the past 2 months my Web connect will always save the file. Under WEb Connect Preference I have the box checked "give me the option to save file...". The option "Save the transaction in a file for later processing..." is not checked. Any help appreciated.
You checked out the setting in your browser for the file type?

Pdog thanks, Would have never thought to go to my browser, thinking all that was controlled by Q. That worked. Tx again.

Thanks for this post! I have always downloaded the OFX file from my bank and then imported the transactions into Quicken using the File|File Import menu option.
I also use Firefox (version 13.0.1); my OS is Win 7 64-bit. The Firefox setting for OFX files is "Save File". The only other default option is to use Quicken Installer - not a good choice.
"Give me the option of saving to a file . . ." in my Quicken 2011 Deluxe WebConnect preferences is NOT checked.
Whenever I selected Quicken download from my bank's website, Firefox would ask whether I wanted to Open or Save the file. I always chose Save and proceeded to import as in the first paragraph above. Then I would go back to my downloads folder and delete the OFX file.
Just a few minutes ago I tried selecting "Open" and - Great Caesar's Ghost - the transactions just imported directly into the correct account. There were also, of course, no OFX files lying around to delete. Nice . . .
Your post raised a question I had not even thought about!

Perhaps you were seeing Quicken Launcher, not Installer. This works pretty good. i.e. If by chance you do not have Q open and download an update from your bank?? It will auto open Q for you, import and close Q afterwards.

You are quite correct - it WAS opening Quicken Launcher. Since I already had Quicken open at the time, it acted like it wanted to INSTALL Quicken
- hence my c> Perhaps you were seeing Quicken Launcher, not Installer. This works
