QB Files on my pc is missing

Hello, Walker Mgmt llc.

 

I'll help you locate your QuickBooks Desktop files in your PC. 

 

They are likely moved from another location. In this case, you'll want to do a wildcard search using the Window search function. 

 

Simply click the Windows Start menu, then search for the following extension file types (type only the asterisk and the file extension): 

 

  • *.qbw (Working Files)
  • *.qbb (Back Up Files)
  • *.qba (Accountants Copy Files)
  • *.qbx (Accountants Transfer Files)
  • *.qby (Accountants Change Files)

There are other ways to find your files, too. You can check the steps from this article: Company file is missing or cannot be found

 

After locating the files, you can double-click on one to open it. Note: Take note of the location of your files in case you want to find them again. 

 

You can browse a number of articles if you need help managing your business in QuickBooks. Look for one from our Topics page

 

Don't forget to drop by in this thread if you have more questions for QuickBooks Desktop or the company files. I'm always here to help.
