    Unless you have something against it, why not use MS Money?
    2005 for free, UK version
    I've been using it for years and will continue to do so

    What features do you need that MSMoney does not provide?

    It is easy to use, I trialled it before settling for YNAB which is subscription based.

    Possibly my bad, I always thought MS was shorthand for Microsoft, is this not the case?

    Hasn't been the case for years.  Some Microsoft software used to carry it (ie MS Money, MS Works, MS-DOS, etc) primarily as a nickname (exception being MS-DOS which was the actual name of that) and also MSN (MicroSoft Network).
