<p>The way to protect yourself and your data when you are going to perform an upgrade of any sort is to take a backup of your data and put it in a safe place, then if there is a problem you can restore this backup.</p>
<p>There is no "internal" version of the Quote Loader tool or of any tool that updates prices. There is an alternative extension called the Quote and Exchange Rate Extension that also updates quotes but you have to periodically upgrade this in the same way as Quote Loader. There is no real guide on how to use Q & ER but it is pretty simple, it is basic and has few options.</p></div>dwgtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/558572722022-09-26T08:03:00Z2022-09-26T08:03:00ZUpgrading quote Loader to the latest version query<div><p>I am not support staff, just a user.<br>
Hi Rich</p>
<p>You are correct the latest build of Quote Loader is 3048. Each new build add features or fixes bugs so its worth looking at the release notes at<br>
<a href="https://infinitekind.tenderapp.com/discussions/investments/4914-the-new-quote-loader#comment_54675202">https://infinitekind.tenderapp.com/discussions/investments/4914-the...</a><br>
And the attached PDF to ensure you are not missing out on new features.</p>
<p>It’s always good practice to do a FILE – (MONEYDANCE on Mac) – EXPORT BACKUP before upgrading but I have never experienced or seen an issue reported by updating Quote Loader. Quote Loader is signed by the Moneydance developer as safe and thus can be found under EXTENSION – MANAGE EXTENSIONS.</p>
<p>The alternative, more basic, extension you can find under EXTENSIONS Quote and Exchange Rate also uses Yahoo as one of its sources but not FT and does require different setting to Quote Loader.</p>
<p>Hope this helps.</p></div>derekkent23tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/558572722022-09-26T20:00:27Z2022-09-26T20:00:27ZUpgrading quote Loader to the latest version query<div><p>Thank you DWG and Derek for your replies. I regularly export and backup the file system but I wasn’t sure if there was a less general way that just relates to the quote loader. No worries then :-)</p>
<p>Derek I read the link you provided - can I just confirm that 3048 will work on the latest 2022.5 as the comment in the link only references 2019-2020 version?</p></div>Rich Wtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/558572722022-09-26T20:57:47Z2022-09-26T20:57:47ZUpgrading quote Loader to the latest version query<div><p>I am not support staff, just a user.<br>
Hi Rich</p>
<p>Sorry, my bad, 2019 to 2020 was a typo it should have read 2019 to 2022.</p>
<p>I have corrected the error in the post.</p>
<p>Have Fun, Stay Safe.</p></div>derekkent23tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/558572722022-09-29T20:50:01Z2022-09-29T20:50:01ZUpgrading quote Loader to the latest version query<div><p>Thank you Derek</p></div>Rich Wtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/558572722022-10-03T20:58:26Z2022-10-03T20:58:26ZUpgrading quote Loader to the latest version query<div><p>I have upgraded to the 3048 version and as you say it all seems to be working as expected.</p>
