Quadcept : Environment Settings

Auto Backup

Files can be saved every certain period of time in order to prevent loss of contents for projects, symbols, and footprints that you are currently working on such as when Quadcept terminates abnormally due to a power interruption.
Files that are saved in this way are referred to as Auto Backup files.
If Quadcept terminated abnormally and Auto Backup is enabled, the backup file will automatically be restored the next time you start up the program.

Auto Backup files are temporary files created while Quadcept is running.
When Quadcept terminates normally, Auto Backup files are deleted.

*Caution*
- A folder for Auto Backup is automatically created in the Process folder of the save area.
- The save location cannot be changed.
- Other operations cannot be executed during Auto Backup.
- The interval set for Auto Backup counts after completing the Auto Backup process.
- When Quadcept terminates normally, Auto Backup files are deleted.

For more details about how to display the setting screen for Environment Settings, refer to About Environment Settings.
