Tidy backup gone

[nitekram]

I clicked something to fast, any way to get it back.

It was working before - when running tidy it would put the files that were old into a folder called backup.

Any help would be greatfull

There should be a config file at C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\SciTE\Tidy\Tidy.ini (by default). It should have a line "backupDir=4" to save 4 backups. Also by default, the backups will be in a subfolder of the script source directory called "BackUp".

P.S. All the above information is well documented in Jos's excellent summer beach read: SciTE4AutoIt3.chm

I sometimes wonder why I even bother to maintain a helpfile ... like I enjoy that stuff

Sorry that I did not read the help file - now I have and I still cannot find any information on the tidy issues that I have. I have changed the number to 4 and still do not have a backup folder.

Like I said before - I use to have one until I clicked yes to some popup box. Not sure what it was and that is my fault, but I sill have the same issue.

Also the description that says X about the tidy INI has nothing about how many files or any other explanation of the key.

EDIT

I have even tried to create the INI file in the directory, but still nothing

I went ahead and reinstalled scite. It works now.
