Need working download link for Quicken 2017 R20.2, R20.5, or R20.6 patch

DS1314

Hello,

I own a licensed copy of Quicken 2017 Home & Business (perpetual license) and am reinstalling on a new laptop. My original installation was at R20.6 Build 26.1.20.6.

All known patch sources are confirmed dead:

- assistant.quicken.com patch URLs return 404

- quicknperlwiz.com returns 404

- Auto-update on fresh install lands at R1 Build 26.1.1.5 and does not auto-elevate

- 2.20.exe from the Quicken support page does not recognize Q2017 as installed

- Quicken support was unable to assist

I have successfully transferred my QUICKEN.INI file from the old machine and Quicken launches cleanly. However, I am running at R1 and need to patch before opening my R20.6 .QDF data file.

Can any SuperUser provide a working direct download link or a Google Drive / Dropbox shared copy of ANY of the following:

1. QW2017R20.6MPatch.EXE (preferred — matches my original)

2. QW2017R20.5MPatch.EXE

3. QW2017R20.2MPatch.EXE (minimum acceptable)

@splasher @Chris _QPW @Greg _the_Geek @UKR

Any one of these three would resolve my situation.

Thank you in advance.

I think you may have missed this Water Cooler discussion:

Website gone — Quicken

This explains why @Chris_QPW 's website is AWOL.
It also contains a link, for the time being, which directs you to Chris' private collection of Quicken patch files.
Make sure the list is correctly sorted by descending name and you'll be able to find a number of QW2017RxMPatch.exe files, with R7 being the highest available.
