Backing up

Hi all,

I'm keen to make sure that I backup all of my Logos resources, settings and notes files. I have been able to locate the location of these in the past and have successfully reinstalled with no problem. However I have now started to use the Visual Markup feature to mark and annotate resources, but I can't determine where this markup is stored to ensure that it is backed up! Can anyone point me in the right direction - I have followed Morris Proctor's video on the subject and am already backing up what he suggest but want to ensure that we've not missed anything. Any help gratefully appreciated!

thanks,

Paul

Look in your "My Documents" folder

you will see a folder called "Libronix DLS" which contains your user settings.

The folder you seek is called "VisualFilters"

But I reccomend you back up the whole "Libronix DLS" folder

You might also look up "Backup and Restore of Libronix" in the Files sub-forum (c. 27 July 09).

Thanks for the pointers. At the moment on my machine I have Logos program files installed onto the system partition (drive c) and all of the datafiles, e.g. resources, annotations, date files, vocab lists etc installed onto a separate partition (drive d). I've done a search for Visual Filters across both drives and it seems that the only reference is on the system drive in APPDATA\Roaming\Libronix DLS\Library\Preferences\LDLS\VisualFilters.lbxprf. I'm assuming that this is the preferences associated with the Visual Filters rather than the actual VisualFilter data. Am I missing something really obvious here?

Thanks,

Paul

Paul,

You are missing the simple fact that it is far better, with less chance of error, and more reliable, to backup everything in the relevant folders!
