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.

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.
