Backing up to flash drive - database seems very large?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have been backing up returns to a flash drive for several years. Keep them offsite in case the worse happens. I use 8 gig flash drives for this purpose. I usually never use more than 1 gig of space on them. Went to backup the 5 returns I have rolled over an worked on in ATX this year and I get a message that there is not enough room on the device and the backup needs 7.6 gigs of space. That is a lot bigger than the other years. Is there a way to compress the database or some way to select the backup that I am not seeing?

Thanks
