• Open Quicken on your old computer.

• Visit the Quicken website (www.quicken.com) and log in to your account.
• Download the appropriate version of Quicken (e.g., Quicken Deluxe, Quicken Premier).
• Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to install Quicken on your new computer.

3. Transfer the Backup to the New Computer

Once Quicken is installed on your new system, you can transfer the backup file.

• Copy the backup file from the external drive or cloud storage to your new computer.
• Open Quicken on the new computer.

• Review any reports or scheduled transactions to ensure everything looks accurate.

5. Reconfigure Quicken Settings (If Needed)

Sometimes, preferences or settings may need to be reconfigured, especially if you’re using a different version or switching operating systems. These might include:

• Re-linking your online accounts (bank or credit card accounts).
• Checking your preferences and custom categories.
• Ensuring scheduled transactions are set up correctly.

6. Deactivate Quicken on the Old Computer (If Applicable)

If you plan to stop using Quicken on the old computer, deactivate the software so that the license can be used on the new system:

This will allow you to activate Quicken on the new machine without any issues.

Additional Tips:

• License Key: Keep your Quicken license key handy in case you need it during the installation on the new computer. You can find this information in your Quicken account.

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully transfer Quicken to your new computer without losing any important financial data.
