I upgraded KMyMoney 4.8 to Version 5.0.80-b775f19e on a Windows 10 Pro PC this morning. Prior to the upgrade I uninstalled the previous version. Following the upgrade I unable to update funds or currency. My attempt at doing so results in the following errors;

Fetching URL https://fx-rate.net/CAD/EUR...
The file or folder https://fx-rate.net/CAD/EUR does not exist.

Using either of the URL's identified in the error message (https://web.tmxmoney.com/funds-ca-quote.php?qm_symbol=TDB2582 or https://web.tmxmoney.com/funds-ca-quote.php?qm_symbol=TDB331) I'm able to load the respective page for each fund in a browser. I can also load the currency exchange page using the respective URL (ie: https://fx-rate.net/USD/CAD). All values in the price update settings match those from version 4.8; albeit there are a few new fields in 5.x

I don't understand why these errors are occurring as the same on-line services used in 4.8 is being used in 5.0. I've no knowledge in this area of KMyMoney however I'm wondering, based on the error, if KMyMoney finds the correct page but is unable to write a temp file to Windows. Is this possible? If not, what could the issue be?

A Bug Report (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=399378) was submitted at the same time as my post. Turns out there was an internal issue that has been corrected. I'll upgrade to the latest build once it becomes available for windows.

With the help of Thomas I've narrowed my issue down to the Windows PC upon which KMyMoney is installed. Installation on another Windows PC showed the application was working fine. While troubleshooting the PC having issues running KMyMoney I've re-installed the application, manually cleared entries from the registry and deleted files from the hard drive. I've been successful at resolving a couple of issues however Price Update remains a problem. I will post a solution here if I find one.
