Quicken Classic for Windows
File Conversion and Backup (Windows)
Open and Convert old QDF file (maybe 5 yrs old)
DO348
I have a QDF file and need to read the data. I do not currently have quicken and am unsure what version the file is. I am willing to buy Quicken if necessary to view the data if it will definitely work, but if there's a free way that would be great.

If your 5-yr old QDF file was created and saved with Quicken 2013, you can download and install a free copy of Deluxe edition here:
Quicken 2013 for Windows
.
If your 5-yr old data file was created with a more recent version of Quicken, you will need to purchase a Quicken subscription either from Quicken.com or from a retailer (make sure it is a legitimate retailer and that you will also get an unexpired activation code with it). The subscription product will be able to open that QDF file.
NOTE: You will have to pay for the subscription up front but if you decide you do not want or need it you can request a full refund provided it is within 30 days of when you purchased it.
Do not bother buying a pre-subscription product (Quicken 2017 or earlier) because Quicken no longer supports those and the program will be unusable.
