R7 for QP2009

The install wasn't bad. I didn't remove the old version. I just downloaded and executed the install program. It took a few minutes, then it downloaded the updates. It all went pretty quick and painless. And, it worked when it was done.

I went ahead and uninstalled/cleaned/reinstalled, just in case there was something messed up that would interfere with future patches. It actually went better than expected, although there were a lot of downloads that were applied the first time I started up the program.

Ditto for me. The only down side was that when Q was restarted with the updates, and I told it I had an existing file, it took a very long time to find it, and no indication of what it was doing while searching. The app looked dead until the search was over. Too bad I wasn't given a browse prompt. I could have navigated to it in seconds.

I finally decided to deal with this problem and found it pretty easy:

• Check the Quicken installation location
• Empty the Windows Temp folder

• Download and apply the manual patch.

The manual download and patch worked for me. That does not work for some?

Hi Tim.

That was Robert that you quoted. I took the shortcut. I had done a clean reinstall just a few weeks ago to try to resolve the problem with Quicken hanging on stock quotes. It didn't help, but I haven't had a hang with R7 yet, so I've got my fingers crossed.

The reinstall without a cleanup went very quick, but it did have to download all the updates. All other settings seem to have remained as they were, and it found my file right away.

Hope work is going fine. Keep the place running.
