Using Quicken

Hello,
I have used Quicken for about twenty years and enjoy it very much. I use nothing online because I do not need any of that. I simply use it to record my income and expenses and then use the information at the end of the year to file our variety of income tax forms. The last version of Quicken I purchased was Quicken 2010 and I have used that for the last ten years. I am currently running Windows 7 and at this time am purchasing a computer with a Windows 10 OS. I assume I cannot run Quicken 2010 on a Windows 10 computer. However, since I make absolutely no use of online services, I am hard pressed to justify paying for Quicken year after year after year. If I subscribe to Quicken this year and do not renew the subscription, can I continue to use it for years to come?? Remember, I do nothing online with my program. All I want to do is keep track of my income and expense and I assume the program will do that for years to come. Am I correct??
Thanks,
Kiarev

What makes you think that you can't install Quicken 2010 on Windows 10?
Have you tried it?
As far as I know it will run just fine on Windows 10.
Also you can get Quicken 2013 Deluxe for free, that will certainly run on Windows 10.
It is the last version that doesn't require anything "online". Quicken 2014 through Quicken 2017 aren't "subscription based", but do require a Quicken Id to install (a Quicken Id is free).
For Quicken Subscription (2018 and beyond) the main thing that changes just in the past it was 3 years of online services from the time of release, and now it is either a one or two year subscription for the online services, and it it lapses then for Starter it goes into read-only mode, but for Deluxe "manual entry" like Quicken 2017 and below. But there are two ads that take up about 25% of window.
For the link to the Quicken 2013 Deluxe install expand the section for Quicken 2004 through 2009 in this article:
