Thank you, Gary. I backed up the registry using the batch file, then ran the update. The downloader hung on no mutual fund data for 3/26 so I switched to the HGSI update which ran without a problem. Then re-tried the downloader and it's happy. ASCII exports came through the upgrade just fine. Corrupted data now fixed. Earl

However, you may want to backup the registry first, I've attached a batch file that will save the qp registry entries, it contains these 2 lines: REG EXPORT "HKLM\Software\Quotes Plus" C:\QP_LocalMachine.reg REG EXPORT "HKCU\Software\Quotes Plus" C:\QP_CurrentUser.reg When you save the attachment, you'll have to change the extension to .BAT from .TXT, I don't think yahooo will resend the .bat file. When you run it, 2 files are created on your C drive C:\QP_LocalMachine.reg and C:\QP_CurrentUser.reg You can restore the registry entries by double clicking on those files. Instead of running the batch file, you can copy each REG EXPORT line into the run window on your system, just click Start - Run, then copy each REG EXPORT line into the window and click OK. Make sure the .reg files are created on your C drive before installing. You can view them with notepad, they're just text files.

The downloader wants to install 3.1. What are the consequences of this change? Are may existing ASCII export setups/formats, of which I have a great many, going to be preserved?

I did major weekend review using data on close 3/21 and found no such issues so something has happened which has retroactively screwed up the data.
