Unlock Quicken: Reinstall an Upgrade or Reinstall From a CD

If you purchased an unlock code to upgrade Quicken (for example, to upgrade Quicken Deluxe 2012 to the 2012 Premier version), you can reinstall that same upgrade and unlock it again free of charge. However, you cannot use the same code to unlock a newly purchased or different upgrade (for example, an upgrade from Quicken 2011 to Quicken 2012).

To reinstall Quicken or install it on a new computer using your original CD, you must unlock Quicken again to gain access to the additional features of the upgrade. See Adding features to Quicken.
