Getting Started with Quicken® 2007. Download transactions into accounts you are already managing in Quicken. Chapter 3, Use online account services. Since you reinstalled Quicken 2007, you need to make sure that you have all available bug fixes (patches) installed. Please see below for details. When you said 'restore', did you mean 'restore from a Quicken Backup taken prior to rebuilding your system' or did you just simply 'copy only the.QDF file (e.g., QDATA.QDF) to a USB-stick and then copy it back to the hard drive'? In Quicken versions prior to 2010, the 'Quicken data file' consisted of several separate files with different file types. So, if your data file is QDATA.QDF you need to also have all other files named QDATA.* A backup file created by the Backup function in Quicken contains all these needed files and, if you use the Quicken Restore function, should restore properly, recreating the individual files. Old Quicken Patch downloads 2000+ When running an old, unsupported Quicken version you may no longer be able to download bug fixes (patch files) directly from Intuit. However, they are still available here: If clicking on Help / About Quicken does not show the highest Release number available for your version (year), as shown on this webpage, download and install the appropriate file(s) from the link above. I just installed Quicken 2007 Deluxe on Windows 10 and here is what I found. First off it seems that Quicken Inc has put some old URLs (and the folders they point to) back in service, because during the install I selected to allow it to do the update and it did download and install R5 (the latest patch install). Past that what I found is a program that doesn't work properly in Windows 10. Every time I tried to backup to an external USB drive it it hung or crashed. I was able to backup to a local drive, but not restore from it. Basically it looks like just browsing for folders/files doesn't work right. I had similar experiences trying to run Validate. Interesting enough when I tried to run Quicken in Windows XP compatibility mode it crashed even more often. So you seem to have had better luck than I did. My personal recommendation is to update to version of Quicken that is compatible with Windows 10 or maybe run a Virtual machine that is running Windows XP to run Quicken 2007. If you still want to pursue running Quicken 2007 on Windows 10 I suggest that you simply not use Quicken's backup/restore. ![]() First off all it is doing is copying your data files to the backup disk. So a 'restore' is nothing more than copying the data files back to your hard drive. Note make sure you copy all the parts of the data file.QDF,.QPH. And if you use attachments you need to copy the folder that belongs to this data set. For instance if you data set is called '2007' you would have 2007.QDF and Attach/2007. ![]() But more to the point you should not only be backing up your Quicken files, you should be backing up all your important files. So if you are doing that properly if need be you can restore them using that procedure. I'm not sure if you can use Starter version or not, coming from Basic. The Starter version has a restricted set of account types and features. And if your current data file has one of those restricted account types in it, it will refuse to allow you to run. Here is there comparison, and at the end of this I will put what I have found in some of my testing of it. But I need to warn you that there is a currently a big roadblock with Quicken 2016 R8. Quicken 2005 Free DownloadThis latest patch release broke the conversion from Quicken 2008 and older data files. What the current workaround is after buying Quicken 2016 contacting Quicken support and they can give you a Quicken 2014 install to do the conversion with.
