I have Q2004 - and the only problem I've had with backups
is that caused by the changing of the drive letter landscape.
There were several msgs about this here in the newsgroup
and also posted to the Quicken forum.
Basically, it appears that quicken saves how your computer looks
during the installation - like a CDrom drive letter D:.
If that "landscape" is not available during a manual "backup"
then Quicken 2004 used to blow up and exist.

Not sure what the latest update was... I think my "about" says R5.
Maybe it was related to the upcoming sunset support.

Thanks for your note! I noticed that my DVD/CD drives were no longer
showing up. I found a fix for this on Microsoft's site (another issue...why
did they disappear?!), and once the drives reappeared, the Quicken manual
backup worked.

I would assume that Quicken knows about this problem, and therefore should
provide a fix as well as inform their tech support staff of the cause so
they can help their users.

Thanks again.
