Which files to back up before updating to latest version ?

[connorsdad]

I see some people are having issues with the latest version so before I update I'd like to backup my pbx installation. What files get updated with the latest version ?

Or is there a 1.85 version somewhere that I could go back to if needs be ?

Thanks

No need to go back. But i always save a setup.exe of pinballx just incase even though Tom is great at supporting a bug fix.

If you want(and i suggest you do) backup database folder and cfg folder and your settings will always be safe! i always right click on these folders and add to archive for safe keeping after i do a table update. I also use clonezilla and keep a image of complete hard drive just incase! I sure wouldn't want to start over incase of a hardware failure!

Yep I agree with rander`s words above.

Sometimes if an install is just about to get a major update, be it PinballX or what ever I will copy the whole thing into a back-up folder for example PinballX and PinballX-old.

This saved my bacon sunday with LEDblinky.

Thanks for the advice fellas, I have the room so may as well back up the whole thing

What about just naming it media1 and replacing the folders if you're really worried?
