Move it like any other windows file. Open Explorer and drag it to the new location. But first close Quicken. Your data file ends in .qdf and should be in your Documents in a Quicken subfolder. Then the next time you open your file either double click on the .qdf file or start Quicken and browse to the new location, go to File-Open Quicken File.

Your answer was partially helpful in that moving the file to the D: drive was successful, but there was some incorrect data in the resulting file when I opened it. However, since I had backed up my original file, I simply restored the backed-up file to the D: drive, and everything was fine.
Thanks for your help/
