 A work-around would be to back up to your HD, then just copy it to the thumb
drive.

Just go out and buy a 1GB flash drive for about $20

How many backup copies does Quicken keep for you? It's under
Edit>Preferences>Quicken Program>Setup Backup .
Maybe use a program such as DiskPie to analyze where the space is going.

I changed it to 9 but that didn't help. It has less than 9. I'll use the zip
for now until I can figure it out. Thanks
