The are stored as encrypted files. Instead save a backup and back that up routinely instead, or save a backup and extract the files to backup routinely

….or opt out of X17 file management system.

Check this post out and reply to get some momentum... It is actually very nice, but needs this backup system...

Newbie to X17 here and already wondering the same thing about files. This will take some getting used too.

This is how I roll. And I also upload the client's folder to google drive routinely to keep the latest and greatest.

This is what a backup does, it stores all of your files in a place of your choosing as an archive

Looks like I have some investigating to do. I do like how migration was easy and I cannot remember if X15 offered that. It's been a minute. Skipping from 15 to 17.
