Boulevard Default Data & Backup File Location
Your Boulevard software consists of two components, the program itself, and the data inside it (data you enter as well as product list information loaded from product updates).
Tip: To find your data or the default location of Boulevard backup files located on your hard drive, you'll want to ensure that Show hidden files and folders are enabled in File Explorer on your computer. View

Unless you have specified a different location under the Backup tab in Preferences (such as your Google Drive or OneDrive), the following areas are where you'll find the backup file when using the automatic backup function upon exiting the software.
The default naming convention for Boulevard backups is BLVD BACKUP_YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS.ZIP.
