I need to install a copy of Quicken Deluxe on a second machine (a backup).

Robert Petrie

My primary Windows machine is down and I'd like to use my backup machine while I figure out why the primary machine is dead. Of course, I wouldn't have the same data file open on both machines simultaneously. Is that allowed?

Yes, you can install on a second machine.  If you have the subscription version there is no limit.  Before that the limit was 3 in a household.

Hello @Robert Petrie

Thank you for reaching out on the community and telling us about your issue. You're able to download the subscription version of quicken on as many computers as you like. Here is an article that goes more in depth on the topic as well. Here's also another one to download quicken onto your second computer.  If you're able to grab a backup or file from a flash drive you'll still be able to continue using that file on your second computer for the time being as well.

Please let us know if this helps resolve the issue for you.

Thanks,
