You can't use the 2019 activation code to extend your Q2017.You need to install Q2019 and use the activation code there.

There is no upgrade path from 2017 to Quicken Subscription without problems.
See this procedure to uninstall 2017: https://community.quicken.com/discussion/7731283/installing-reinstalling-and-upgrading-to-windows-quicken-2017-versions-procedural-adjustment
Do bot reinstall Quicken 2017.
After running CCleaner Free, go to: https://www.quicken.com/activate
Select / Click I'm a new Quicken member.
If Windows, click Download for Windows. Save it then right-click and click Run as administrator.
If you are going to be using a Data File Password, you will need to reinstall Quicken using this procedure: https://community.quicken.com/discussion/7844658/installing-reinstalling-windows-quicken-subscription-editions
Why? There is a Quicken Activation Server Bug, that you will see if you are going to use a Data File Password..

Don't wait. You don't want to encounter install problems (they're few and far between, but non-zero) and get caught flat footed with no Q.
