Thanks for chasing this up. But the issue is not that I want to save a backup copy to my desktop, It's that I can't open any QB backups at all. The original company file was created on OneDrive, and several backups were also created (automatically by QB) on OneDrive. However, when I came to restore one of those backups today, it failed, whether I restored to OneDrive or to a local drive. This is QuickBooks Pro 2019.

 

None of the backups work. Creating a local backup and then restoring from that also doesn't work. The only thing that works is editing the original company file, which puts me in a very precarious position with no backup ability at all, and no way to get out of that within my current setup.

 

I am running QB on a windows 10 VM running in Virtual Box. I am going to attempt to restore my company file from OneDrive on a non-VM windows machine to see if it is the VM that is causing the issue.
