This is not easy because of the following: 1) There are a multitude of ways to backup data; the "step by step" way I set up my backups may not match your backup program. Moreover, Mac has different tools that Windows than Linux - on Macs, the "Time Machine" comes with Macs and is pretty common, but Windows and Linux have a wide variety of backup programs.
2) The main GnuCash data file name is determined by each user; mine could be "MyFinances.gnucash", yours may be "HeidiMoney.gnucash". The name is normally "<CustomName>.gnucash"... this is again difficult to put in a step-by-step procedure. 3) GnuCash's help files does have a section on which files need to be backed up that has been previously referenced. I skip this because the other files are kept in a subdirectory of my home directory, and that is backed up on the different computers I have.
