Moving termbase(s) files into a safe directory to won't lose them.

Question

Hi, 
 I created a termbase and it saved into this directory folder by default: C:\Users\[PC user]\Documents\Studio 2019\Termbases 
 I wonder Is it okay and standard way to close the Trados Studio and move the termbase(s) files manually into a directory separate of &ldquo; C:/ &rdquo; partition (e.g Into a folder in D:/ directory that I archive and store my important files) and then load termbase file into the Studio ? I won&rsquo;t lose my termbase file because of my OS crash or any problem that put my termbases in danger of corruption and lose them. 
 Best, 
 Masoud

Hello Masoud Moghaddam , 
 Its always good to see translators looking to ensure they don't lose their resources. 
 We have a free app available so you can back up your TM's and TB's

 As you are automating the process of backing up your resources, you can leave the resources in the current folder (C) and back up to where ever you want.
