Quicken no longer runs. I need to "embed" Microsoft Edge webview2. What does that even mean?
Hi folks,
Our developers are looking into a fix to get Quicken working again after its latest update. We don't have a workaround at this time, but please make sure to submit a support ticket so we can notify you once we have a fix for CrossOver. Apologies for the inconvenience; we know how frustrating it is when apps update and break.
All the best,
Meredith
Any updates when this will be resolved or are there any work arounds suggested ? It has been a couple of days. Thanks
I've figured out how to roll back to an earlier version of Quicken as a temporary solution until this gets fixed.
I successfully rolled back to version R49.33 (it's version 50 that doesn't work) by following these steps:
Download the current version (R50.8) from this page:
https://www.quicken.com/activate
by choosing "I'm installing or reinstalling Quicken".
Install that version into a new bottle using the "Quicken 2020" script in Crossover.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT actually run this version (uncheck the "Launch Quicken" box on the very last step of installation). If you run the new version of Quicken even once, you'll be stuck with the WebView problem and will be unable to downgrade.
Download an earlier version (R49.33) from this page:
https://www.quicken.com/support/reinstalling-and-patching-your-quicken-subscription-version-after-your-membership-has
That page also has links for the Canadian and Mac versions.
Run the patch in the new Quicken bottle created above.
Start Quicken and you should be good to go. Just remember not to upgrade Quicken until the WebView problem is fixed.
Hope this helps!
It will not install the R49.33 patch. It comes back with an error that the URL failure.
Thank you thank you ! I got it to work. You have to install Quicken 2020 not just make a new bottle then install Quicken.exe.
Also do not run the new update that is asked when you do a update for quotes.
Have you got the new release from Quicken to work ? Tried it and got to the sign in to get quotes and it says not connected to internet and then crashes. Thanks
I have the same issue (see my separate post on Quicken crashing now). Have used Crossover for several years to run Quicken but this is the first time I haven't been able to make it work. Not sure if it's a Quicken problem or a Crossover problem.
It has been 2 weeks and no help from Crossover. I have emailed them with no response. Now when you do what John Montenan suggests it updates Quicken automatically so it is no help. At least they could tell us they are working on it and give us a time it will be completed.

Hi Craig,
I see that our support team responded within 40 minutes of your original ticket - did the response to go Spam by chance?
We are working hard on it, and we'll be distributing a fix just as soon as we have one to users that submitted tickets.
Best,
Meredith
Craig (and anyone else who tried my workaround),
I have figured out how to prevent Quicken from auto-updating and breaking. I have just posted the complete details of the entire workaround to the main thread about this problem:

Please follow along there for updates.
