The hard drive is getting read error and before it dies I need to backup Moneydance and reinstall it on a new harddrive. How can I accomplish this?

    I would take a backup using the Moneydance menu item File --> Export Backup to external media, this needs to be done for each data set (data file) you have.

    I would also take a copy of the Moneydance data tree, where this is depends on your Operating System and version.

    The Knowledge Base article on backups is:

    https://infinitekind.tenderapp.com/kb/backups-and-exporting/backups

    The default location for data files can be found at:

    https://infinitekind.tenderapp.com/kb/file-locations-and-changes/default-file-location

    The data tree generally has as its root the folder at a level above what is given in the article.
