[GNC] Set up

[David Carlson]

Welcome to the Gnucash user maillist.

That is the normal way GnuCash makes automatic backups.  You can read about
the process here: <
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Basics:_Filenames.2C_Directories.2C_...>

Eventually Gnucash deletes older backups.

Most users place their data files in a dedicated subdirectory of their user
space such as Desktop/Checkbook.  You can call it whatever you want.
