Program options - Files

Files tab of the Program options dialog

Backup

DesignBuilder will by default make automatic backups of your current working file. Check the Automatic backup option box and select a backup interval to enable this option.

If for any reason DesignBuilder does not close down cleanly and is unable to save, a skh backup file will remain in the same folder as the dsb file and DesignBuilder will ask whether you want to recover this data the next time you open the dsb file.

 

In addition DesignBuilder copies the auto backup file to the Backup folder below DesignBuilder Data folder.

 

Note: DesignBuilder keeps files in the Backup folder for up to 30 days and removes old backups each time the program is run.

You can edit these default folders on this tab.
