The same way you create a  backup of all your other data. Your gnucash data is a file, just like all of your other files.

Describe how you NOW backup all your data (all your documents, pictures, etc. Where your data is (in what directories, aka, file folders) depends on what operating system you use, not the same for Windows N as opposed to linux or a Mac OS. But you didn't tell us that.

For example, I am using Windows 10 and use FireFox and Thunderbird. Data might also have changed since last backup in the documents directory (gnucash data here), downloads directory, and perhaps picture directory. So once a month (my backup frequency) I connect an external drive, create a directory Backupsyyyymmdd and into it copy the directories I listed (my T'Bird data and FF data would be in their respective profile directiories.

Then I can take that drive out to the fire safe in another building  << if that last seems paranoid, we once had  a house fire and smoke/water messed some drives up so badly not even the data recovery lab could get all of it back >>
