What files in my in my business folder need to be backed up?
I'm running my Gnu Cash on a windows machine which have to be stored on the
local drive. Backing up the needed files in case of computer failure is
always a good practice. I have been learning how to use GnuC and found the
files there are better than 100 files for 4 days of use. Will the last Text
file and the last "GNUCash Financial Data" file be all I need to copy to a
cloud? Or do I need to copy all of them?
Welcome to GnuCash! I hope it turns out to be very useful for you.
A good first stop for answering your question is the /GnuCash Tutorial
and Guide/ <https://gnucash.org/viewdoc.phtml?rev=5&lang=C&doc=guide>,
section 2.5. *Backing Up and Recovering Data*.
In fact, if you are new to GnuCash and have not yet read all the way
through the Tutorial and Guide, now might be a good time to.
You might also find the GnuCash wiki article, *Backup*
<https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Backup>, to be useful also. That article
will refer you to a second, *Configuration Locations*
<https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations>, which will also
help you know where your customisations are stored, so that you can
include them in your backup.
Once you have read that, if you still have questions, come on back to
the list and ask another question.
Best regards,
