Overview

The Backup tab of the Settings dialog controls automatic file backup. When enabled, Principal Plan creates a backup copy of your data file each time you save.

Settings

Setting Description
Automatically Create Backups The master toggle for the backup feature. When unchecked, no automatic backups are created and the remaining settings on this tab are disabled.
Backup Depth The number of backup copies to keep (1--100). When a new backup is created and the count exceeds this limit, the oldest backup is discarded. The default is 5.
Backup Directory The folder where backup files are stored. Click the browse button to select a directory. If the backup directory is unavailable when saving, an error message appears and the save is aborted to protect your data.
