Windows 10: Access Quicken files

"This file does not have an app associated with for performing this action. Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Apps Settings page." I was recently forced to reinstall my operation system. All my data was still present; it's just my OS took a dive. With my OS installed, a few applications needed installations as well. One particular application is MS Money. Now, I did have this happen before; but never like this. In the last OS, I downloaded the Discover Card registry on it's account page and placed it in my Money program MS Money. Now, there isn't any association with QFX. Could anyone please explain why isn't any? There is one with Quick Books QIF. Could you please explain how to get QFX as an app? I did install Microsoft Money 2007 with USMoneyBizSunset. Please help.


Take care and God bless,

David J Spinelli

Cant open quicken files

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand your concern regarding the issue that you are facing.

• What the exact error message you are getting?

Please be informed that Quicken 2002 might not be compatible with Windows 10.

I suggest you to install that program in compatibility mode and check.

Compatibility mode runs the program using settings from a previous version of Windows.

Follow these steps to install the program in compatibility mode and check if that helps.

a. Download the program from the manufacturer’s website.

b. Right-click on the program setup file and click on
‘properties’.

c. Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box
‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 8 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation. Once this is done, restart the computer.

If the issue persists I suggest you to contact the Quicken support for further help.

Hope this information helps you. Kindly post back with the updated issue for further assistance.



Thank you.
