New computer

I just bought a new computer!! ( Finally)

With my subscription, how do I transfer my Quicken system to the new computer before formatting the old computer harddrive?
Thanks in advance

Hi @dhanson01 ,

On the old computer, do a Manual Backup of your Quicken Data File.

On the new computer, use your Browser and go to:  https://www.quicken.com/
Click SIGN IN and click My Account.
Download the correct installer for your operating system.
Save it.

Right-click and click Run as Administrator to install.

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

Remember to choose I'm upgrading and choose to Restore the Manual Backup File, you just created.

Direct that backup to a USB drive, or such, so that it's easy to move to the new computer.
