Goodness, you are significantly over rating the problem.
You can select all the transactions in your old account just as
you would select a group of files in Windows Explorer.
Then go to
Edit > Transaction > Cut
Open the new account.
Edit > Transaction > Paste
That's it.
(If your old transactions are "Reconciled", you may want to do a
"copy" from the old account, then paste in the new, then delete
the old account ... this avoids having to get Quicken's approval
to remove each reconciled transaction.)
Much easier than qif file export/import.
And qif file export/import is also still available ... just a
mite more work than it was before.
