I'll have to leave the answer to that question to those who have
Q2007.

John,

Still having trouble. Tried the CTRL trick but it doesn't seem to
work with Q2007 -- Quicken opens without a data file but the
tool bar only has the File and Help menus so no (obvious) way
to initiate the update. Next I downloaded and ran the manual
update (without Quicken running). Got the same error result
as before: seems to be updating; status bar crawls all the way to
the right; then a pause; and then a screen with the message
"The update for Quicken 2007 was not completed."

Maybe I'll have to wait for R5.

Did you try what R.C.'s approach. Use the "Run as" option to
run as *the* administrator (when you run the manual update, in
your case ... thought you can also try running qwpatch.exe that
way)?

I'll go back and check R.C.'s message to be sure that I understand
it. But, I only use one account on my Windows XP machine and
it is set up as the administrator. So there shouldn't be any issue
with administrator authority. And, I've never had any problems
in the past.

Yep, I'm encountering similar problems. I sent a message to Support. Let's
see if they respond
