MMEX Discussion Forum

What action should I take differently when I notice backups and mmb files with edit conflicts? Is this common?

For example:
MyMMEX (# Edit conflict 2026-04-17 msmliaC #).mmb_update_2026-04-23.bak

My MMEX database and backup folder currently has a .mmb labeled with "edit conflict" as well as a weeks-old .mmb that is not labeled with "edit conflict."

In my family, I am the only user of MMEX and I use it only on a single Desktop. I do not use it on my phone. I have my MMEX database and backup folder configured to be synched into my Proton Drive cloud storage.

Thanks to a post from guangong, I see https://moneymanagerex.org/docs/features/usecloud/.

In MMEX, I have "Backup database on exit" selected.

Is there something I can change? Is there something I am missing, doing wrong, or should watch for?

I would store the database locally on your computer. There are issues with SQLite databases when using cloud storage.
Back up your data and PC periodically to an external storage device.

Thank you!
