Re-Installing Windows 10

Unknown

The only Quicken DVD I own is Quicken 2018. 2 Months ago I payed for 2020 Renewal.
I need to have my computer Windows 10 re-installed so how do I get Quicken 2020 re-installed on my computer? Is there a way for me to download Quicken 2020 without paying for it again?

Thank you

Hi @""Charles Cox" ,

See / read this procedure:  https://community.quicken.com/discussion/7844658/installing-reinstalling-windows-quicken-subscription-editions

Tells you where to go to download.

To install Quicken, I suggest you download and open: https://download.quicken.com/windows/Quicken.exe

@Charles Cox Make sure you have a good backup of you data file.

For what is worth even an install file from 2018 will work.  Once Quicken 2018 and above "Subscription" is installed the very first thing it is going to do is download and install the latest version.  That is the advantage of being on a subscription.

I thank everyone for your kind caring response to my question!
Once I learned I had to have Windows 10 reinstalled, the very first thing I did was to make sure I had back up data for every program I needed, including doing a back up of my Quicken Data.

I am planning on doing the re-install of Windows 10 tomorrow morning, July 7th

Again I thank everyone for the help I needed to get this job done!!

P.S. I have been using Quicken since getting it free on the very first computer I bought back in the 1980's!

I got my computer back, the speed this loads now is Wonderful. I also got Quicken loaded again, Great!!

Well not really so great. The font size now is TINY! It used to be so much better.
How do I increase the FONT size within Quicken??
I found "View/Use Large Fonts" which does make it a little better, but it is not near as large as it used to be!! What else can I do? Like I said before I reloaded Windows the FONT was much larger than it is now!

Hi @""Charles Cox" ,

Play around with a combination of View / Use Large Fonts as well Settings > Ease of Access then under Display experiment with Make text bigger and Make everything bigger.
