extra files

Mornin'y'all, I'm new to linux (Zorin) and to MMEX, so please bear with me.

I have a MMEX file called Test, the directory it sits in fills up with misc files titled something like
test.mmb_update_2024_03_27.bak

How do I set the program to save them in another directory (folder), or can I get rid of them, or ...

And maybe someone explain what they are used for and why MMEX keeps adding more of them
Thanks
Jim

MMEX creates backup files (.bak) on request, which are always located in the same directory as the database.
This can be set in the options.

Thanks for that, For some reason I overlooked it. I guess there is no way to designate a folder to save them in, would be nice to have the back up in a different folder.
Thanks
