This is one of the things that has come to light as more and more users that chose to let the subscription expire are seeing. Quicken has determined that this is the price to pay if you let your subscription expire! There is a new version Quicken 2017 that seems to be heading in the right direction, and you should try that one out.Īs a result of Quicken reversing its decision to make your data read-only when any subscription expires, instead, they will now hijack about 25% of your screen real-estate for advertising. I am doing this even though I am mostly running in a Mac environment. I will continue to use the software, but that is because I have no other option. I do not suggest you buy it, wait and see what Quicken will do about this product. If your Quicken 2015 (Canadian Edition) is working just fine, then give Quicken 2016 a pass. Maybe something better will show up next year? Note there is no link to where you can buy this product. Sunsetting older versions of Quicken allows us to focus resources on enhancing our products and providing support for more current versions, which are used by the vast majority of Quicken customers. In an ongoing effort to provide reliable high-quality products and services, Intuit periodically retires (also known as “sunsets or discontinues”) older versions of Quicken, thereby discontinuing online services and live technical phone and email support for these versions…. If you read the Quicken web site, you can see they are encouraging folks to keep upgrading your system: Why did I buy this? My Quicken 2015 wouldn’t actually work anymore, so I figured I’d try the new version and that does seem to have fixed my issues, except I still can’t download investment information without it crashing.

In fact, Intuit Canada, seems to have nothing to do with Quicken Canadian edition, you have to go to the /Canada web site to find information out about it. If you look closely at the “About” entry in the “Quicken 2016” that I paid about $100 for, you see:Įxcuse me? It is not even copyrighted for this year? Suggests to me, this is a simple bug fix release, and not even a “new” version. When I downloaded it (however), the name given was: Quicken Home & Business 2016 – Download
