Question

Hello all, I have another question. After installing the program "Backupall" I realized that I did not really need it, not to mention it adds several minutes to the hotsynch process. I did a simple deletion on the palm, and even deleted the backup folder on the desktop. Hotsynch still backs it all up. How do I completely disable this?? Thanks!!

Find a utility like FPSUtility that lets you look at the backup bits, and clear the backup bits on all the applications... because that's all the BackupAll programs do, set the backup bits so the hotsync syncs everything.

Exclamation

After your first hotsync (after doing a 'force' in BackupAll) the only files that should synch are ones that change, even with the backup bit still set.

DB Explorer is an excellent program for that as well...
