All of your apps live at C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Apps on the server. However, they are not in qvf format and have names that mean nothing to the average person. So you could backup this folder.

I don't know the implications of restoring something to this folder from a backup.

Probably the best thing to do is to run the Repository Snapshot Manager. Then you will backup everything in addition to the apps.

Hi Mark, how to run the Repository Snapshot Manager?

In that case will that take snapshot of all the apps and QMC settings with Apps Data? or just the Data load script structure alone ?
