Quicken WillMaker & Trust 2026 26.2.3130 is America’s most trusted estate planning software, providing everything you need to create customized wills, living trusts, and essential legal documents from the comfort of your home. The tool was developed by Nolo, and Quicken uses its user-friendly interface to help users manage their estate while safeguarding their family and assets and honoring their final wishes.
An online will maker is an inexpensive way to navigate the will-writing process. While it’s not a good solution for those with large or complicated estates, it’s an excellent starting point for people looking for a simple way to do basic estate planning.
Program Location and Your Data
The main difference between the online and downloadable versions of WillMaker is location—where you work and where your data is stored. Do you prefer to create your documents (and store your data):
Online—using any device and web browser, or
On your PC, requiring internet access only for initial downloads and occasional updates?
The choice is yours, and you can use either system. But remember, data does not transfer from one to the other—see below.
