You can find the Backup folder

Search for the backup folder on Windows 8 or 10

  1. Find the Search bar:
    • In Windows 8, click the magnifying glass in the upper-right corner.
    • In Windows 10, click the Search bar next to the Start button.
  1. In the Search bar, enter %appdata%. If you don’t see your backups, enter %USERPROFILE%.
  2. Press Return.
  3. Double-click these folders: "Apple" or "Apple Computer" > MobileSync > Backup.
