Once you have done that, start your Browser and change the location of the downloads to the New Briefcase.

Your Quicken Data File(s) before starting.Ĭreate a New Folder on the Desktop or Create a new Briefcase Folder on the Desktop and rename the Folder, New Briefcase, which can be done in Windows 10, too. Next do a Manual Backup your Quicken Data File. Next, you need to change or temporarily remove the File Password from the Quicken Data File. But before making the change, the User needs to print out or print to a PDF File, the Vault Passwords, because the changes, may erase the passwords stored in the Vault.Īfter printing out the passwords, change your Vault Password from the Intuit User ID Password to a Custom Password. If the User is using the Intuit User ID for the Vault, the User needs to change the Vault Password to a Custom Password. Ideally, I / Quicken should inform Users, when opting in to using the newest version of Quicken 2017, two things must be done, before you can upgrade. There are bugs in the old version, which have not been fixed and I like to uninstall Quicken completely then install / reinstall Quicken and this is what I do to install Quicken, successfully.ĭue to changes from Quicken 2016 to Quicken 2017, the process in upgrading from one version to another version, is going to be a lot trickier, because of the removal of the Intuit User ID for the File Password. Quicken states to allow the new version of Quicken to remove the old version.
