Quicken 2002 for Windows -- Manual Update

Each Quicken 2002 product (Basic, Deluxe, Home & Business, and Premier) has its own specific update file. It is important that you match the correct update file to its associated Quicken product. Use the chart below to help you in this process.

Note: First, verify that downloading the manual update is actually necessary for your version of Quicken. Do this by checking which release of Quicken is installed. If your version of Quicken is already Release 2 (R2), the current release you will not need to apply the manual update.

Note: If you have not yet tried to update from within Quicken 2002, use the Quicken One Step Update feature.
