Title: "Backup options" set to none by default
Post by: marche on October 17, 2011, 11:14:08 PM

Is it possible to have "Backup Options" set by default to "None" instead of "Backup" when clicking Exit?

Hi,

I added

export BACKUP=0

to the last line of my .profile (which is at /home/tc) and did a backup and restarted. but when I click on the Exit button again, "Backup" is still at default. I thought that even if I clicked it, it wouldn't backup, but it still did, as it took several seconds before the screen vanished as opposed to immediately closing TC when I select None. I checked .profile and the line is still there so the original backup succeeded.

Hi marche
I just took a look at a couple of my  .profile  files and it already has an  export BACKUP=1
line listed. Remove what you added and find that line and change the 1 to 0. Then back up
and reboot.
