Quicken 2007
Submitted by Anonymous on 2007-03-04 10:10:07 This product has a rating of 2 out of 5 running under Windows Vista Comments: Windows Vista Ultimate. Quicken 2007 is very quirky. Do not under any circumstances apply the R4 patch on Vista Ultimate. After it takes 20 full minutes of spinning(!) - on a 3ghz machine with 2gb ram(!) - the very first download from your bank results in need to accept downloaded transactions, but none appear in the register to accept(!) Worse, either the R4 update or the initial conversion of your 2006 files to 2007 format corrupts your c:\users folder's security settings, all the way down through all the hundreds of subfolders. The R4 patch you can manually download has exactly the same problems as the automatic one. The only safe way and I don't know how safe it really is, to use 2007 with Vista Ultimate is to take a system checkpoint, install 2007 WITHOUT accepting the R4 patch, convert your 2006 files, then restore the system checkpoint (to get your security settings back), then uninstall 2007 completely, then reinstall it WITHOUT the R4 patch. Good luck. |
