Hi there, @gtz. 

Thanks for joining in this conversation. To give you an insight, uninstalling QuickBooks does not delete your company files. It will only remove the QuickBooks application. 

Here are our great articles with detailed steps and instructions on creating and restoring a backup of your company file as your future reference:
