Scheduled OSU

Aug 16, 2013 5 Replies

Anyone else having problems with scheduled QD13 One Step Updates? Mine stopped working a few weeks ago on a Win 7/64 machine and I can't figure out why. The program bagent.exe normally runs in the background and kicks them off, but it shows up in the Windows event log as crashing. I've even uninstalled/reinstalled all of Quicken but the problem still exists.

If you added a password to your Quicken file in the past "few weeks", that would prevent scheduled updates from running.

Yep - couple of cards had been reissued because of the Harbor Freight breech. What's happened with Quicken?

Looks like I'm not the only one:

Don't understand your question.

Quicken doesn't allow scheduled updates for Quicken files with passwords. Been that way for as long as I can remember.

You do understand that I am not referring to passwords for your online accounts, right?

This only has to do with a password on your Quicken data file ... a password that you have to supply to Quicken when you try to Open your Quicken file.

Ah - Sorry, I misunderstood. No - I do not have a password on the data file. As Quicken hasn't been updated recently, I assume that one of the recent Windows patches has broken the Quicken OSU scheduling system.
