The very first thing you need to do is plug your hard drive (pen drive) into the computer and copy the Quickbooks file.
1. If you have a backup file with an extension .QBB file then do the following:
Open Quickbooks and go to your File menu. Now click on “Open or Restore an existing company file”, then> Restore a backup copy (this will convert your .QBB file to .QBW file. The file with an extension .QBW means that it is an actual QuickBooks company file ready to use and can be worked on.
