The database is stored in siglos.db file located by default in Documents/My Karaoke. An automatic backup of the database file is made every 7 days, and saved as ZIP archive in the same folder.

Thank you for responding Adam.
Is there anyway to make the backup happen immediately? As I work on the database I would like to make backups along the way to make sure I don't lose work. How do I recover the backup of the database?
Thank you.
Phil

You just need to backup sigos.db file to do this. Please remember that the database file does not contain song files themselves, but only location of files is stored.

Will this also retain the singer history? I need to move my database to a new computer. I really do not want to lose my singers' history.
