data file did not migrate from Q2017 into Q2019 with up grade

I have 2 data accounts.  Only one is available in 'Recently Opened' after I upgraded from 2017 to 2019.  How do I find it??

This isn't too hard to accomplish:

1. Launch your older version of 2017, and open the other file you wish to migrate. If you get any warnings about wanting to open 2019, don't-you simply want 2017 here.
2. Once you have the correct file you wish to migrate open in 2017, hold down the command key, and click on the filename at the top of the Quicken Window.
3. In that popup, choose the parent folder which likely is Documents. See attached below:
4. 
   

This will open the hidden Documents folder in the finder.

1. Quit Quicken 2017.
2. Double click on the file you wish to migrate to 2019, and you will get a popup about wishing to convert it to the new version. Your old version will remain untouched.
3. Once in 2019, you can again use the Open Recent to jump back and fourth between files.
