When I use Quicken backup, Quicken asks where I want my files backed up. Can I tell it I want files backed up to Webroot Secure Anywhere cloud? If so, how?

Hi louanne111

 

Welcome to the Community Forums.

 

If I may interject here, as I have had a similar question myself with the home accounting software that I use.

 

The best approach is that you tell Quicken to back up a specific location/folder that you have set up on your hard drive, i.e., set up an new folder under 'My Documents' called 'Backups' or Quicken Backups', and then synchronise or back up that folder or its contents with Backup & Sync, following the instructions that Sherry has pointed you to.

 

In that way you have the double security of having the key data on your system locally and also backed up in the Cloud.

 

For information, Quicken does offer their own online/cloud based back up service but I assume that you are averse to paying the asking price for the service (completely understandable when you have Backup & Sync).

 

Hope that offers additional help?

 

Regards, Baldrick
