I'm running Quicken 2000 Deluxe on an old Windows 7 PC. That PC is being replaced by a new PC with Windows 11. I have decades of Quicken data that I need to move to the new PC. I've read that I cannot run Quicken 2000 in a Windows 11 environment, is that true? How do I get my data files on a newer version of Quicken that will run on 11? Note that I do not care about any online features, I just use Quicken to keep track of expenses.

If you do decide to upgrade, I suggest you consider upgrading to the free Quicken 2013 Deluxe. If you haven't already, you may want to review: https://www.quicken.com/support/how-and-when-use-intermediate-version-convert-older-versions-quicken0 -
Thanks for the quick reply. My wife just reminded me that we're running Quicken Home & Business 2010, not 2000. I found the Quicken 2010 CD. How do I upgrade to the free Quicken 2013 Deluxe? Would I gain anything over 2010? All we use Quicken for is to keep track of our expenses and generate expense reports for tax time.0

To upgrade to the free Quicken 2013 Deluxe, you would download and open: https://assistant.quicken.com/patch/ASDES5672FR13/Old_Products/QWIN/QW2013DLX.exe
As to what is different between Quicken 2010 and Quicken 2013, I'd say a lot less than between Quicken 2000 and Quicken 2010. There should be about 3 years worth of bug fixes and new issues. If you're happy with Quicken 2010, you can stay with Quicken 2010. You may always install Quicken 2013 on another computer and play with it to see if you like any better.1
