Hi krmotoshull-hot, thanks for joining the QuickBooks Community - we'd recommend reaching out to Sage support directly for assistance with this; alternately, if any users have experience of creating a back-up file, we'd welcome their input below. :)

You need to utilize the trial version for Sage to restore your backup file. Another option, you can purchase a 3rd party conversion service to convert your Sage backup file to QB Online. You don't have to bother installing Sage 50 on your machine.
