Hi, I have a new pc and need to reinstall quicken but my version was Starter Edition 2015. Is there a way to get starter edition 2015 and import my files?

Thanks

Quicken doesn't support old versions of Quicken. You might find a copy on eBay but make sure it's a reputable seller.

Was your Starter Edition still working?  I think it should have gone into Read only mode.  Could you have upgraded to a higher version?  You might want to try to find Deluxe.  

If you do install an older version you will need to update it.  One of the SuperUsers has posted the update patches for older versions (2000 and newer) of Quicken

Prior to Quicken Subscription the Starter versions never went into read-only mode (there was no subscription to expire, which is the trigger for Quicken Subscription Starter edition to go into read-only mode, note Deluxe and above don't go into read-only mode).

Yes it still works on my old PC. About two years ago I transferred it to another PC but I don't remember what I did to get it working.
