I am currently using Quicken Classic for Windows, R56.9 Build 27.1.56.9.
I'm cleaning up my laptop's drive of old junky files and see I have two folders of files within my Quicken folder: "Q14Files" and "Q17Files". Each subfolder contains a copy of my Quicken data files and old log files. I believe these were created during upgrade process to the next newer version of Quicken from years past. I have regular historical data file backups stored elsewhere.
Would it be safe to say I can delete these two subfolders and their contents?

TIA

    start your current Quicken - FILE —> look at the bottom of the list to see the 4 last used QDF files -
    just to make sure what is being used

    Also check where your Quicken backups are being created - Auto & Manual backups -

    QWin - R54.16 - Win10
