Thanks for getting back here in the Community, radiohunter. Let me provide you with more information about other file types in QuickBooks.
Yes, you're right. QuickBooks Working (QBW) files are critical components of the QuickBooks accounting software, typically stored on the C drive for optimal system performance and accessibility. These files serve as the primary repository for financial data, containing comprehensive records of transactions, accounts, and business financial information. To ensure seamless software information, it is essential to store this file in a place that is easily accessible by the software.
Additionally, it is also recommended to back up the QBW file along with ND, LGB, and DSN files. Regular backups serve multiple crucial functions, including protecting against potential data loss, preserving transaction histories, and providing a reliable restoration point in case of system failures or accidental data corruption. By consistently creating and storing backup files, businesses can safeguard their financial records and maintain uninterrupted access to critical accounting information.
