Darren,
I'm not sure you need to - all Logos data is 'backed up' on Logos servers anyway. But if you insist, you should be backing up the following folder:
%appdata%/../local/Logos4/Data/
This is my personal Faithlife account. On 1 March 2022, I started working for Faithlife, and have a new 'official' user account. Posts on this account shouldn't be taken as official Faithlife views!

The standard installation path is:-
XP -> C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Logos4
Vista/Win7 -> C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Logos4
It is worthwhile backing up the complete Logos4 folder as it includes your user files/documents, collections, preferences etc as well as resources and index.

The reason why you would is because you may no longer have internet access, you might be on a capped data plan, or you might be on dial up. We are in an earthquake disaster zone and believe me having an onsite back up can be quite useful.

Hi Dave
how do you stop Logos 4 from automatically starting to download from the Logos servers and to point it to the back up folder on the external drive?
TIA, Tony

You don't normally backup files until they are on the hard drive and there is no way to redirect a download in L4! If you don't want an automatic download set Automatically Download Updates = No in Tools | Program Settings.
