What is the best way to back up my Inventory files?

We recommend that you back up your Inventory files on a regular basis for safekeeping. Ideally, you should make a copy of your entire aucinv directory (along with cusauc and aucmail) on a CD/DVD, external hard drive or other media on a regular basis. In addition, you can create a zip file of the essential data files in your Inventory System and copy the zip file to another location. There is a file zipping function in the Inventory System Utility Menu that will create a zip containing all of the Inventory data files. This zip is for safekeeping also, and can be copied onto any other location or media.
