Been using Q Home & Business 2017 with DB stored on my PC. When I install Q 2020 Deluxe (web), will my local DB be automatically imported? Thanks

    Not imported, just opened. It's the same data file without need for conversion.

    OK. Not having used the web version, I thought the DB might be stored on the web & I'd have to move my local copy. So you're saying the DB remains local? Thanks

    Web/App access is to local Quicken file. Some banking data does get sent to cloud for access.

    Quicken Subscription is NOT web based. It's the same desktop software as Quicken 2017.
    Quicken Subscription HBRP - Windows 10

    Sorry for the misunderstanding. Where in the Q 2017 menu can I enter my new key?

    You need to go to quicken.com to enter activation code if you purchased other than directly from Quicken.
