According to
this article
, you should be able to open your QW2010 file directly in QW2020.
But before you do, please do a File > File Operations > Copy followed by a File > File Operations > Validate & Repair of the copy in QW2010. Then use that validated copy to feed into '20. This will help ensure that you have a nice clean data file to be converted from old to new versions.

Backup the Quicken data on the Windows 7 PC, install Quicken on the Windows 10 PC and restore the data.

Do I need to install Q 2010 on the new Windows 10 PC, or can I load the Q 2010 data file into Q 2020?
