C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Quicken) and the server share (\\Server\Quicken) and set them to Synchronize.Ĥ. Choose the local folder where all of your data is located (e.g. Create a folder pair in Synctoy on each PC with the name "Quicken". Set up a share on your WHS where you wish to keep all of your Quicken data (e.g. Install Synctoy on each PC that you run Quicken on.Ģ. Well, I found a way that works for me and will for you too as long as you are willing to put up with the extra steps.ġ. (especially at 3 PM when my kids get home from school and jump on the internet at the same time and start playing games). next, if an application has to get it's Data from a network location it will be much slower than if the file was local. WHS is a great thing to have but remember WHS is already backing up this file every night so you dont need to store the working copy of the file there. What you you should be able to do though is choose a network location as backup file target and set it to auto backup when you quit Quicken. Unless you have a version of quicken that supports network storage I would see this as a limitation of Quicken and not WHS. when you store a backup or a copy of a quicken file on WHS you will probably not have a problem as it's nothing more than a file transfer with some rudimentry error checking in the process. but in the case of the quicken program doing read and write operations on the file or "appending" to the file without actually replacing it you may run into problems the same way you do with Outlook. You might have a problem here one way or another.

I had planned on trying SyncToy to keep the files updated on each PC via a WHS share, but I haven't had time to give it a shot yet. Me? I gave up on it for the time being resigning to remoting into my main desktop and running Quicken there when on another PC. Some people say they have it working, others report corruption like us.

I went to the Quicken support forums and did a search on running from a network drive and found that it is not supported in any version of Quicken with the exception of QuickBooks. I tried this too initially with WHS and found the same result: corruption of the quicken data.
