Can I have 2 desktop icons for Quicken Premier
Bone Daddy
I have the need to run the same Quicken program on two different Quicken data files. I would like to have two Icons on the desktop. One for Quicken data file A and one for Quicken data file B. Both files were maintained on different computers.

To create a shortcut to open a given Quicken data file right click on the Quicken data file using File Explorer and select Send To -> Desktop (create a shortcut).
You can use that shortcut to open that data file.

I want to manage two data files from the same Quicken program. Both files were created and managed different computers, however with the same Version of quicken.

Quicken can manage multiple data files. You should only have one Quicken icon that is the program. The icons you may be describing are the data files that should not be on your desktop. These files should reside under your Documents\Quicken folder. You can access any data file in Quicken under File listed at the bottom of the menu.
