It bears repeating: the folder on Windows in which the gcm files live
(c:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash) is hidden by default.
File Explorer won't show it, and won't return it as a search result.
The About dialog since at least 4.13 (the version I'm running) includes links
directly to this location, however, and you can type %APPDATA% in the File
Explorer address bar to go there directly.

While the default for Windows is to have explorer not show you hidden
files, that makes it difficult to properly set up backup procedures,
rename data directories (prepare to recover from a bad build), etc. For
example, the directory "app data" is hidden.
This is not the only Windows default setting which you should override.
