SaveVersion

SaveVersion is a tool that uses a wizard to create a partial or complete copy of the application, including the last log files, the last images and screenshots of important settings).

Under “Job” you can select which backup is to be executed. Depending on the application, different variants may be available. In most cases, however, the following “Jobs” are available:

  • Viper.NET Project backup: Backs up the project folder and %PROGRAMDATA%Gefasoft (contains e.g. the WatchDir configuration).

  • Full backup: Backs up additional log files and images.

  • Active type: Saves only the current BV type folder (analogous to Archiving types)

Die Standardkonfiguration von SaveVersion erwartet den Log-Ordner unter D:\log; der Bilderordner wird automatisch aus den Bildspeicher-Einstellungen des Vision-Plugins übernommen (Variable %ImagesDir%). Beides ist mit SaveVersion Config einstellbar.

Hint

The VisionTypeArchive (by default next to the project folder, parameter visionTypeArchive) and %PROGRAMDATA%GefasoftCrashReporter folders may contain large files that are no longer needed. Therefore, check these folders regularly to keep the SaveVersion archives as small as possible.

Note

Please provide your project via SaveVersion for support requests.
