Jan, sorry to hear about your problem.


Two questions:


1) If I back up a Database only, is there loss of information on restore?

2) I always backup the entire AmiBroker folder... same question here.


It will not be possible for Tomasz to prevent user, by error, deletion of data in all areas. I have gone through many such occasions. The best solutions would be:


1) An automatically timed daily folder-back up of at least 5 several levels. This could take place at night.

2) An automatic backup of several levels, much more frequently, of files that change frequently, such as Layouts (Like Word).


I am sure that there are programs out there that can do this. Finding one would appear the most speedy solution. Perhaps Acronis? Do we have an expert who can write up a procedure? 


Don't give up on AB. Tomasz, or some users, will probably come up with a solution before you would be able to transfer your work to another program. 


best regards,

herman

Hi,

No. They are both checked. It is a similar option for the closing of the entire window, which to the best of my knowledge, does not exist as of yet.

Regards,

Jan

The problem is really that the old backup was not possible to restore. Anyway, it doesn’t matter. I shouldn’t have complained so much, since it doesn’t help, really. I just want the program to ask before window closing in the future. I reinstalled it and now it reads the new backups at least.

The best advice I can give you is backup backup backup.


I use an external USB hard drive to back up my work several times a

day. Every time I have completed enough work that I don't want to have

to do it over, I back up my data.


If I were in your situation, I would back up to another computer on my

network and make dvd backups every day.
