I've tried the same thing as jonseattle. My WLID account and password are good. Can log in and log out of Live all I want. I can't create a new money file from scatch and associate my valid WLID. Keeps telling me unable to
verify credentials. Can you recommend anything like a password breaker or whatever.
If you want to create a new file with no LiveID,
1. Start Money 2006 (and probably later) and click File, click New... or click File, click New
and then click New File....
2. Click Next, choose Decline and click Yes when you receive a warning.
3. Check the "I don't want to use a password for my Money file" option and
click Next.
4. Click the "Skip Account Setup" link and click Finish.
That new file will not have your existing data in it.
For an existing file that has a LiveID on it, disconnect from the Internet. Try to open your file. Choose to sign in offline. Once into your file, remove the LiveID. File->PasswordManager....
If you are unsuccessful, you can try repairing your *.mny file with salv.exe (level 2). You can also try restoring your newest or second-newest *.mbf file. I would decline to restore to the DefaultLocation, but rather I would Browse to your Documents folder
and choose a new name
Don'ts:
Don't change your LiveID. If you already did, use the one in
effect when you saved the file to get in.
Don't delete your LiveID.
