Two steps involved....
1 - you should download and install Quicken software from the Quicken website onto your laptop.
From your laptop -
Log into the Quicken website - find your Quicken Account info, scroll down, click on Download Quicken (Windows).
Run the downloaded file to install Quicken.
2 - you should copy over your Quicken data files, backups, etc from your old computer to the new laptop.
From your old computer -
If you look at your \Quicken\ folder, you will see the Quicken QDF data files, and probably a \Backup\ folder.
Just copy the entire \Quicken\ folder over to your laptop.... via flash drive or cloud service.
