Did you ever figure out a fix? I have the same problem.

My error. There is not a version update as such for Money 2006. It
probably just wants to update the financial institution list etc. So
what I might try includes these:

In IE6, I would go to
Tools-> InternetOptions-> Security-> TrustedSites-> Sites list
uncheck "Require server verification... ". In the trusted
list I would add these:

moneycentral.msn.com
fdl.microsoft.com
passport.com
passport.net
login.live.com
g.msn.com
money://



Check that the SSL2 protocol is enabled. That checkbox may
Tools-> InternetOptions-> Advanced.

Now that may not do it for you.

I don't want to suggest a parallel procedure to you. However to see
that folder, try a command window.
cd "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Money 2006"
dir /a
attrib MNYCoreFiles

I don't want to describe or suggest things further at this point. If
it messed things up, ....

Got to here ok - except that I have Money 2006

Not sure what that means - it looks to me as if it now only shows some of
the files in the directory...

Can't see a folder of this name; all I have are the folders
invoice
WebCache
and a bunch of files (market.mar, market32.mar, surf.mar, surf32.mar,
themedef.mar, themedef32.mar, toolbar.xml) - and that's it.

It sounds like you are talking about Money2007 - mine is version 15.0.6.513
(Money 2006)

Thanks for your help - any pointers for M2006?

There is a problem that is expected to be fixed before consumer
release of Vista.

To work around that for now, try this:
======================
1. Restart Windows.
2. Show hidden files and hidden system files.
3. Open the Microsoft Money 2007 installation folder. The
default location is C:\Program Files\Microsoft Money 2007.
4. Open the MNYCoreFiles folder.
5. Click Compatibility Files at the top of the screen.
6. This will open the Virtual Store.
7. Delete the MNYCoreFiles folder
8. Close the window.
9. Open Money. The prompt to update Money should no longer
appear.
NOTE: If Money was successfully updated, the version # in Help About
will be 16.XX.X.1024.
==========================================

I bought M2006 online/download a while ago. Under Vista RC2, when I install
the webinstall package and log in with my passport credentials it tells me
that it needs to download more software (basically it upgrades from the Trial
version to the full version). When I click OK it tells me:

"Your Money software requires an update. Before you can install the update,
you need to close Money, log on to Windows as a member of the Administrators
group and then restart Money"

The account I am using is a member of the Administrator group - and it's the
only one on this machine. Any idea how I can convince Vista that Money is
allowed to upgrade itself?

Thanks
