How do you make a backup of all the other user data on your computer?
<<some day your drive will die>> You should not be looking at different
backup of user data from each application. You want a GENERAL back-up
procedure.
You have a lot of decisions to make. How often will your data be backed
up? To what will the data be backed-up, the cloud? An external drive? If
the latter, a second copy sent offsite?
The point I am making is that if you are backing up ALL of your user
data, you don't need something specific to gnucash (gnucash user data
just a special case with "all")
There are TWO fundamental kinds of back-up, all as of some date/time and
"incremental" (every time a file is changed). The latter takes less
space but will require software. The former you can even do manually.
