If I have Quicken for Mac Subscription Version, am I entitled to Quicken for Windows?

I currently have Quicken Subscription v5.14 for Mac. If I were to convert Quicken to the Windows version, does my subscription entitle me to the Windows version or would I need to buy another subscription?

Yes...ALL subscription memberships include access to both Windows and Mac versions of Quicken.
Do note that the data files are not compatible so cannot be shared back and forth between the two versions. That said, you can install these on as many computers as you like. The main caveat is that they ALL must use the SAME Quicken ID, which for the most part means that any data and Quicken services shared via the cloud may be accessed by any of those installations.Have Questions?

Quicken should eliminate the LARGE Ad space when a subscription expires

Thank you. I understand the differences in the data files. I am going to be replacing my Macbook and am considering a Windows 10 PC for budget reasons.1

You indicted that your plan is to convert from QMac to QWin.
This conversion only partially works - "partially" is generous!!
Investment accounts do not convert at all.
In non investment accounts, Transfers do not convert. Both sides of a Transfer are present but they are not linked.
The conversion from QWin to QMac does work reasonably well.QWin & QMac (Deluxe) Subscription
