What if Quicken backs up the wrong data file?

Quicken backs up the Quicken data file that is open when you back up your data. If you want to back up another data file, you need to open it before you choose File menu > Backup and Restore > Back up Quicken File. If you're not sure where the Quicken data file you want to back up is located, Quicken can help you find the data file.
