           Default Location for 64-bit: C:\Program Files(x86)\AdvancePro\Data
       
       
      4. An alert message will pop up saying whether AdvancePro Backup has been completed or not. 
      If not, please review previous steps or contact AdvancePro Support if problems persist.

      NOTE: Before making any changes (minor or major) to your data, such as importing orders, products, customers, vendors, etc. be sure to backup your system so you can restore the backup if errors are committed.
