Automatic library backup not working in MC21
« on: June 04, 2016, 06:03:42 pm »

I noticed the library isn't being automatically backed up anymore on MC21. On previous versions, every few days a backup would be automatically generated, but now it only happens if I do it manually.

Anyone else notice this?

It's still happening regularly here for me.

Is your machine a client in a library client/server scenario?  If so this is a known bug: client's don't automatically backup their settings when logged into a library server.  The server should still auto-backup as normal.

The other possibility is that your specified backup directory (in options) no longer exists or has different permissions.

Definitely working correctly here.  No client/server, just a single MC machine.

Ugh ... this was the problem. Thanks for your help.

And thank you to everyone else for replying. I appreciate it.
