Let's create a backup, @roger23.

 

1. Navigate to the File menu and choose Back Up Data

2. To save to an alternate location, choose Specify Alternate Location, click on the correct location. 

3. Click on Backup then Finish

 

Here's an article that gives a little more information about backups: Back up your QuickBooks Desktop company file.
