Hi @KenCunin ,You can't simply put Quicken 2008 in your Documents folder. Quicken needs to be run from a Shortcut Icon on your Desktop to the actual program located inC:\Program Files\QuickenYou need to download and install all the patches to Quicken 2008 from:Install Patch 7 first, then patches R8 and R9 in order.
Once Quicken is installed, you need to restore the Manual Backup file from within Quicken.

Who re-imaged your computer? Did they backup everything? Do you have a Quicken folder in your Documents folder? Did you make backups to an external device?Quicken Subscription HBRP - Windows 100

Download each the patch files from the link in @thecreator's post and double click on it. Why didn't MicroCenter reinstall Quicken? I service computers and always reinstall all programs after re-imaging.Quicken Subscription HBRP - Windows 100
