Welcome to the Community, dibar45-comcast-.

 

I'll show you how to download your QuickBooks Desktop file from USB drive.

 

Here's how:

  1. In QuickBooks, go to the File menu and click Open or Restore Company to open the restore wizard.
  2. Click Restore a backup copy (.qbb) and then click Next.
  3. Choose Local backup and then click Next. The Open Backup Copy window opens.
  4. If needed, click the Look in drop-down arrow and navigate to the location where you saved the backup file, which has a .qbb file extension (for example, mycompanyname.qbb).
  5. Select the backup file and click Open.
  6. Click Next.
  7. If needed, click the Save in drop-down arrow and navigate to the location where you want to restore the backup file.
  8. Select the backup file, click Save, and respond to any messages QuickBooks may display.

For more details about restoring a backup of your company file, kindly visit this article: Restore a backup of your company file

 

Additionally, here's a link that will help you learn more about how the product works: Help articles for QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Feel free to go back to this thread if you need anything else while working with backups. Have a good one.
