![]() I did manage to fix it (hello, RegEdit), but I was faced with a dilemma: continue clutching at straws with Money, or move to another app? I don’t know if this is because I now have 23 years’ worth of data in it, or it’s still “phoning home” in some sense (although I understand this has been removed form the Sunset edition), but it’s painful.Ī couple or so weeks ago, it suddenly got worse: for some ungodly reason, the Money importer program would no longer automatically open QFX files from my financial institutions. Indeed, what I tend to do now is open it up every morning, and then check emails or whatever, until that initial start-up phase is complete. Second, the start-up time for Money is now horrendous for me – at least 5 minutes before it’s usable. First is the obvious one: it was completely and utterly discontinued in 2010 and it’s only a matter of time before something happens to the OS and Money no longer works (indeed, there’s been a couple of issues over the years that have required patches). Let me make clear though, although it works fine the issue with Money is two-fold for me.
