themoules 3 Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 Does anybody know why backup files in external edits are not removed after the file is deleted.Dave mentioned in this postthat it is safe to delete external edits. viewtopic.php?f=38&t=10222&p=40485&hilit=external+edits#p40485Is this still the case and are there plans to address this as it would be good to claw back the disk space.
engberg 89 Posted May 20, 2010 Posted May 20, 2010 I think that we left the edits around for a little bit in case there was a problem in our client, but we were supposed to delete the files after some period of time. Do you see really old files sitting in that folder?Thanks
themoules 3 Posted May 21, 2010 Author Posted May 21, 2010 Yes the files do go back a fair way. An example is87D911D2-F89B-4B9E-839F-C751ACDE3334.backup 37Kb Modified 18 Sep 2009I'm sorry but I don't know how to add a screenshot jpg to the forum.
