Duplicated mmb file after closing app

Post by Eduardommex »

After changing date format from MM/DD/YYYY to DD/MM/YYYY the app create a duplicated mmb file with the same size and date. First one as the database file I created and second file adding to the name the date as an example my_name.mmb adding my_name.mmb_update_2021_06_26.mmb. I have already reversed back the previous date configuration but steel create this kind of duplicated file after closing the app. Is there any suggestion for preventing this kind of behavior? I use MMEx in windows 10 or Linux Ubuntu 20.04 with MMEx version 1.5.1

Depending on the settings in "Options/Others/Database Backup" MMEX makes such security files

Thanks Renato
I assume this was based on date format changes and I was not aware or forgetting I have changed the database backup option at the same time. Finally I have already fixed it, thanks again.
