    On the laptop ,  Sunday, then on Monday when  we tried to open quick book the menu appeared , new company, existing company, we selected existing  company  which took us to the browser to locate the backup.
    The backup was only until 29/11/2017. I'm concerned about the  data after that date.

    thank you Kevin for your help, I was able to restore  data until 27/09/17.
    The rest  to date is missing. Do you have any suggestions on how that can be retrieved?

    Kevin Russell could you please tell me what the equivalent default directory (C:\users\public\public documents\intuit\Quickbooks\Company Files) would be for Home & Business?

    Astro, I'm not sure that KB article is quite up to date.  I usually find the default location these days for a Home & Business data file to be C:\users\*yourusername\documents\Quicken.  If not there it would be in the public\public documents folder.
