restore from mydata.tgz but not ask me to backup at exit

[manit123]

How can I do above ?
I have read
export BACKUP=0 ;  exittc
command helps .
I want 'none' selected when I choose exit .
Can I do it without explicitly running any command ?

In the home directory is a hidden file named .profile.  Edit this file and change the line

Code: [Select]

export BACKUP=1

to

export BACKUP=0

After a restart, when shutting down TC, the Backup Option will show None.

You will need to backup to save the change though.

This is good advice.

That step is certainly needed if your home directory is non-persistent and/or a backup has previouly been created.

It can be omitted if your home directory is persistent (via bootcode home=...) and a backup has not been previously created.

editing ~/.profile worked .
