The user can perform the below steps to restore QuickBooks company file from local backup. In case the backup company file is on an external device like the USB or a hosting service like Box, then the user will have to move it to the local hard drive.

·        The very first step is to move to the file menu and select open or restore company



·        After that choose restore a backup copy and also click on next tab

·        Choose the local backup and also click on next tab

·        The user should now browse the system for the backup company file

·        This would look like the company file name with qbb as file extension

·        After that, one needs to select a folder to decide where to save the restored company file and also choose open tab

·        It should be noted that if the user opens the backup in the same folder as the existing company file, then he/she might end up in overwriting the data.

·        In order to avoid overwriting anything, the user can rename the existing company file or the backup so the names are unique

·        The user can also save the backup in a completely separate folder

·        When done, the user should choose save tab

·        In case any message appears, then select the option that best fits the needs

·        And avoid overwriting unless you know you want to
