Jack from Ohio Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Just tested it and it immediately creates a backup when you close a client. It did that in 2013. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abby Normal Posted February 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) It did that in 2013. Perhaps it did but you couldn't tell because of the wacky way the backups were named & stored. Edit: I just tried it in 2013 and did not see any new files in the backup folder. It's soooooooooo much nicer this year! And reassuring! Edited February 5, 2015 by jmdaviscpa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 I'm glad to see the client name in the backup file names. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcb39 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Messing with backup files is risky. Not recommended. I totally use export and can find all of my files on the jump drive as well as the total system backup. I don't have time to mess with anything else. You know that, Jack! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 I use the import/export too. But the Backup files is in Program Data/CCH Small Firm Services/ATX 2014 Server/ATX 2014 Backup.Listen to Jack, don't mess with it. But I do copy it to external backup HD. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abby Normal Posted February 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Yes, always backup your backups! I back up the whole ATX 2014 Server folder. Actually, I backup the entire (hidden) ProgramData folder even though a lot of the stuff in there isn't really important. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
