Default Re: Help! Money 2004 forgot my password

File Password.

Ok, I figured it out now. The 'lock' switch inadvertantly got set on for my
SD card. Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom, is returning 'invalid
password' error when it is determined that the file is write protected. How
freaking lame is that. Anyway, once I set the 'lock' switch off, my password
once again works fine. Worst part is that it would cost me 35$ to tell
Microsoft that they have a bug in their software. No wonder their software
takes years to stabilize.

Default Help! Money 2004 forgot my password

I use Money almost every day. I have never changed my password. I keep the
data file on a secure digital media card. All of a sudden, today my password
no longer works. I've tried it on 2 different computers. I know everyone's
first impression is that I'm just some idiot that forgot his password, but I
assure you that is not the case. I use the same password for all of my
applications, and I haven't changed it for years. All of a sudden, Money is
not responding to this password anymore. What can I do? Any ideas? My most
recent backup is about a month old, and it works just fine, but I really
don't want to have to re-enter everything I did for the last month.
