My backup is starting to fail since we have little space left from Quickbooks so I am starting to look at items I can delete that are old. I am wondering if the following folders are safe to delete items out of:

- BackupFile - Multiple QuickBooks Company Files and ND Files

- qbw.searchindex

- QB2021BackupFiles (We are now on QB 22)

Are there any other ways to help shrink this folder?

How big is your backup file size?

I have two files within the backup folder which are over 400,000 KB. Our actual company file is 1600MB

You just need to secure the *.qbb files for your backup. If you're using QBD Pro or Premier, consider purchasing a third-party file condense service to reduce the size of your work file (*.qbw).
