You just need to back that one file, which you might call accounts.gnucash. It would be more complicated if you used an external database, but I assume that you are not, because that’s not the default behaviour, and it would require the installation of other software. So no backup tool is needed. In fact, the program makes regular backups in the same directory. -- Dr. David Kirkby, Kirkby Microwave Ltd, drkir...@kirkbymicrowave.co.uk https://www.kirkbymicrowave.co.uk/ Telephone 01621-680100./ +44 1621 680100 Registered in England & Wales, company number 08914892.
