Money Plus Deluxe will not update

Bill Gauvey · Joined: 24 Feb 2008 Posts: 3

When I open my money file, I get prompted that there is an update availabel.
When I update it, it seems successful, and re-open my money file, I get
prompted again. This is a never ending loop. I am running Vista Ultimate, in
November, I installed Money Plus Business & Home, and removed Money 2007
Deluxe. I want to go back to Deluxe, but it looks like my registry is hosed
and every time I open Money, I get prompted to update. Should I disable the
UAC and try it again? Or, should I remove money, and try to clean out my
system before installing Deluxe again?

TIA, Bill

Open Money once by right-clicking the launch icon and choosing
RunAsAdministrator.

When I Run as Administrator, it does not ever prompt me. So when I return to
run as myself, I am stuck in the loop. Do I need to Run As Administrator
everytime?

I've been experiencing the same issue. Run as Admin didn't work for me
either. For me the download starts then I get prompted that "A software
update is already in progress. Please try again when the update is
complete." MS Money has authorization to by pass my firewall.

No, you should not have to. It is unclear what you are running now--
Money Plus Business & Home, Money Plus Deluxe or Money 2007 Deluxe.

In any case, make sure the *.mny file is not in your ProgramFiles;
it would typically be in Documents. If running Money Plus Business &
Home there may some other consideration. You might want to contact
support. From Help->About write down your serial number. That is
your Product ID for contacting support.
