Before you upgrade
{{man warn| Warning |Creating an archive before upgrading might not alone be sufficient to safeguard your data: In the unlikely event that Gramps 5.1 corrupts your database, it could also corrupt the archive. A backup of your data as outlined in this section is recommended.}}
'''''Before ''''' you upgrade, make sure your family tree data is secure. The best way to do this is:# Start your existing version of Gramps (Gramps 3.4 or Gramps 4.2 or Gramps 5.0)
# Open your family tree
# Back up the family tree to the ''gramps xml'' format or the ''gramps xml package'' format (the ''gramps xml package'' includes your photographs and other media files associated with your family tree data). Backup your tree via menu {{man menu|Family Trees->Make Backup...}}.
# Close this family tree and repeat the above steps for any other family trees you have
# Keep the resulting file(s) in a safe place
