Library Backup - When does it happen?
« on: July 17, 2006, 08:32:44 pm »
It appears that MC 12 is saving more settings in library backups, yea. ;D

I am wondering however, when are backups automatically made?  Can we control this, ie. when and where?

They're made daily.  It's not configurable.

Hmmm....

I had to backup from one previously and it was 2 days old couldn't find a new one.  I guess  that means I didn't use MC that day.  Thats shocking!

Would be nice if it backed up before every program close.  It would just overwrite the previous one.

Aslo why does the music stop when I select library restore, eventhough I haven't actually resotred it yet?

This is tricky, since often ppl might shut down the machine after closing MC, not realising that even tho MC is closed, its actually working in the background. Result is an incomplete or corrupt backup.

So when is the correc time :)

Interesting, what settings does it save?
Does it do all the stuff from options?  :)
