How do I get the transaction date to default to today's date?

I have QB 2015 for Mac (v16.0.5). I've read the posts that say to check the "Use current date as default" box in Preferences/Transactions. Done that. Doesn't work. I've tried putting a "t" in the date box. Doesn't work. I've manually backed-up the program in hopes it'll correct itself. Doesn't work. The date always reverts back to some previous date. Please help!

I believe Intuit is working on this issue, in the 2016 year version at least. For now close and relaunch QB daily and use quickbooks>quickbooks feedback and submit a bug report.
