I am away at the moment but think you need to go to options to find the back up details. You have put a tick in the box if you want reminders Victor Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device -----Original Message----- From: "Dennis Hawkins" <dennis.hawkins138@btinternet.com> Sender: family-historian-users-bounces@rootsweb.com Date: Thu, 3 Nov 2011 19:06:18 To: <family-historian-users@rootsweb.com> Reply-To: family-historian-users@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [FHU] Lost sources and loss of backup facility I too have noticed I no longer get asked if I want to make a backup.

' Have you tried simply restoring the Backup you create every time you close FH? ' This is what always happened  to me, I was asked if I wanted to create a backup, some how the last couple of times I closed FH it is not asking. It just closes. I have checked that the Gedcom file has been updated, but would be happier if I also had the zipfile backup. Have i inadvertently changed an option somewhere?
