This didn't seem to affect Quicken; been operating fine. I now have a new PC with W10 and need to install Q. I read where I would need to use Q2013 to do this, but instructions say use only for viewing, do not add entries. Is this only if I further convert to a new Quicken? If I use the Q2013, could I continue to add new data? Any help appreciated; THANKS

Just be aware that Premium support is the SAME support as everyone else; it is nothing more than front-of-the-line access. In other words, you get priority access to support...not special support.thecreator said:...If you are a Computer Dummy as you put it, you should upgrade to Quicken Premier Subscription over the Deluxe version, because if you lack patience and don't want to be put on hold waiting for help, Premier comes with Premium Support for free.

ps...I had Q2004. Notice you will need to install 3 patches in order to update it. I also saved them to a CD incase I ever needed to reinstall 2004.
I'm staying on Quicken 2013 Premier for Windows.

splasher/volvogirl - Yes I am happy with my old 2004. Tried to install on new HP laptop (Windows 10 Home, version 1903) , blue box appears "This app can't run on your PC". At what point should I be stalling the 3 patches ?0

You may need to change the Windows compatibility settings in the properties of the installation program. You can't install the patches until after the initial install.

smayer97 - I considered that but after updating to 2013 it recommends: After the process is complete, we strongly recommend the converted file be used for reference only. A new data file should be created for future data entry. Stability issues could occur if new data is added to the original file.0

That's just a Quicken CYA. Many SU's have data files that go back to the early nineties including myself.Quicken Subscription HBRP - Windows 100
