I am upgrading to Quicken WillMaker 2011. Do I need to uninstall the older version first?
No.Keep your old version of Quicken WillMaker until you have successfully converted and opened all of your documents files with the 2011 version. Before installing the new version, back up your Quicken WillMaker documents files to a CD, flash drive, or other external medium. Next, install Quicken WillMaker 2011, start the program, and open your WillMaker documents files. Once a WillMaker documents file is opened and converted to the 2011 portfolio format, you won t be able to open it using an older version of Quicken WillMaker. (You will be able to open it with the current version.) When you first open a file created with an older version of Quicken WillMaker, a “Pre-2011 Documents.pfl” file is automatically created in your “Nolo Documents Backup” folder. This file can be helpful if you’ve signed or amended a living trust using a pre-2011 version of Quicken WillMaker. (See below.) It’s possible that some of the documents you created with the older version won’t appear in the 2011 Docum
