How do I backup GnuCash?

[Jason Dostal]

Hi Cashound -

You should be, at some point, be saving your file.  Whatever file you 
are saving to is what you can backup.

Unlike other financial packages, GnuCash isn't fussy about filenames and 
extensions.  You can give the file you save any extension you wish - I 
don't even use one.

See this page of the guide for more info -
