.adi file issue

Post by KB1FGC »

Hi,I had to do a clean install and everything seems good with the program but everytime I save my file it doesn't save a .adi file but only saves a sqlite file or a .json file.I loaded my original sqlite file but it didn't seem to keep the settings that I saved to it but at least my logs are in the program.Is there a way to save the setting so that the columns in the log section stays as preferred?
Thanks

Normally you would save the config.json and an sqlite file here unless you changed it C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\Log4OM2\backup

And enable additional backups in a folder of your choice, perhaps in the cloud

Check your config for locations as below

Hi Terry.Maybe there is a glitch or something.I do save it in a different folder so I can access it easily and then back it up to my USB flash drive.I did that before but after I reinstalled the software and set the backup drive to my folder that I want.It saves but only json and sql files.No adif files which isn't too good.I tried saving to files and still not showing Adif files in the folder.Should I do a new install?
Terry,check my 2 screen shots.One is where I save my files.It says Backupfiles/LOG4OM,The other is what the program defaults to.See what you think.

You had not checked the 'Additional backups' box which is the one to save an ADIF
