Re: Backup Folder, Relative to Current Directory ? Thanks, it would make accessing the backed-up saves easier, without polluting the active directory with so many files.
I move them manually but then the number sequence starts over -- To then move the BackedUp files to the rest, it becomes a little more complicated: 1) Rename the files to be moved. 2) Move the files. 3) Sort by Date. 4) Apply a Rename/Mask with [C]ounter in TotalCommander's MRT (multi-rename tool). |

Re: Backup Folder, Relative to Current Directory ? Hello CrashNBurn,
It is not possible now, but I will consider improving this function. Thanks for your inputs!

Backup Folder, Relative to Current Directory ? Is it not possible to set the Backup Folder to the current working directory?
When I uncheck [ ] Save Backups to Backup Folder , Then the Backup Folder: gets greyed out. When I check, [x] Save Backups to Backup Folder [x] Save Backups to the Same Folder AND Set, Backup Folder: .\BackUp(EMEdit)\ The Backup Folder gets automatically changed to LOCATION_OF_EMEDITOR_INSTALL\BackUp(EMEdit)\ I don't believe any APP should be attempting to save backups to the program files directory... Is there no way to set the Backup Folder relative to the current files location? |
