No backup configuration

Post by lu1dz »

To whom it may concern:
I have lost all my data logs (Including my personal data, station data, etc), luckilly my data was still there where the qso's remain saved, but i couldnt find anywhere my logs.
I had to re-configured everything, like starting from zero again.

Is there anyway to protect all the files, so this wont happen again?

Use the backup provided to two different locations, there is no reason you should lose data of set up if you use the program as designed

Parece que usted no entendió mi problema, de todos modos pude recuperar la información copiando la data del archivo xxxxxxx_config.json de la carpeta backup a la carpeta:
C:\Users\Name\AppData\Roaming\Log4OM2\user archivo: config.json

I suggest making full backups of all important (and maybe not so important) files. I make a complete image of my drive every night, using Macrium Reflect. I keep five images. I also use GoodSync to back up new and changed documents every hour. This is all done to an external drive. I also use the backup function in Settings. In addition to that, I keep a copy of my Documents/Log4OM folder in Google Drive. This might be overkill, but I am less likely to lose data this way.
