How Quicken Archive Works

Archiving is a personal preference and not a requirement. Some Quicken users create an archive copy at the end of each year, and others archive part of the file after using the same Quicken data file for a few years.

The Quicken Archive command makes a copy of transactions prior to and including a date you specify. Your Quicken transactions remain unchanged – archiving in Quicken does not split the archived transactions off from the original data file.
