Quicken Password is the toold of choice when you lose your password for an Quicken file and have to recover it. There are two types of passwords used in Quicken: a password for opening a data file (also known as 'file password') and a transaction password. If both passwords are set, you will have to find the password for opening the file first; then you can recover the transaction password. In other words you cannot recover the transaction password if the file password is set.
