| Never looked. If it's different than M04/5/6, maybe there isn't one since it's new and there probably isn't all that much demand just for Money.

| Great question. Answer? Got me. But my suspicion is that the password would be the one you were using when you backed up the file. Were I you' I'd test it to know for sure. Another reason to periodically test your backups is to make sure they really are. But were I you, I wouldn't get too comfortable thinking that the password is some kind of industrial strength security. Search in google for microsoft money password recovery. You'll get my point. Also, I don't believe they encrypt the data, even if you do use a password. Therefore the contents of the file will have some visible data even if Money won't open the file.

| I regularly take backup of my money file. I secure my money software with a password also. My question is regarding the security of the backup file. When I take a backup do I need to remember the password also? Let's say I took a backup a month ago and after that I changed my money password. And for reasons unknown I forgot the password which I had set when I took the backup. In the event of failure when I try to restore it from that backup will it ask me for a password? If yes, which one? If not - then is it not a security breach considering the fact that the backup CD might be stolen and somebody else can load my personal data on their computer. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks and Have a Great Day. |
