I am running reckon Personal Plus 2022 without any problems on a very old computer running Windows 7 (2009). The computer is very old so I want to install the program on my much newer PC notebook running Windows 11.

Which are the important data files I need to transfer across? I'm very comfortable finding backup files and "restoring" them, but the guide on transferring Reckon to a new computer also advises transferring the data files. Which files??

many thanks!

    My team has informed me about the data files for the Reckon Personal Range. The Reckon Accounts Personal Range data file set consists of multiple files with the same name but different file extensions.

    If for example your file is called "QDATA" then the data file set would be:

    QDATA.QDF – this is the main component

    QDATA.QSD – these are supplementary files

    QDATA.QEL – these are supplementary files

    QDATA.QPH – these are supplementary files

    QDATA.RKN – this is a backup set


    I hope this helps!
