Lost Installation files

Thanks. This helped me with my problem. Once I followed the link I was able
to download a fresh copy of the installation files (which I saved!), and then
sucessfully installed Money 2005.

Thanks again.

and follow it if you want your Money file to use the same Passport
on your Money file that you used when you bought Money.

If you want something other than to do that, do something slightly
different. Create a NEW empty file (named perhaps Temp.mny) that
you put the referenced Passport onto. Let Money download data that
it needs. Close Money. Restart Money.

Confirm that Money shows the right version. Then File-> Open your
existing Money file.

I have a new computer and I want to setup Money 2005 on it. Problem is that I
don't have the original installation files. They were downloaded and I don't
have a copy.
