[Feature Request] Backup MC Library on a User Set Schedule

<< < (2/3) > >>

That's exactly what I am doing using windows task scheduler every 12 hours. But why not build it into MC ? Right now the automatic backups are done way too infrequently.

If you have this working in Task Scheduler - why not just up it to run every hour if you feel the backups are too infrequent?

Ha, that's waaay too frequent for my tastes. I am saying that the backups that MC does in the background are too infrequent and unpredictable - there seems to be no rhyme or reason to them, let alone any regulated schedule.

I don't know if customization is required, but the random 2-3 day schedule is too infrequent. Most of the time I've had to restore a backup, it's been days old.

I totally agree. Same deal with Auto import. There is no logic to it whatsoever. Can never tell when it ran, is going to run or if it's running (or not).

Both of these processes need some TLC. They could even be a part of the same scheduling dialog hint...hint..
