not making a bpn (back up file)

Anonymous — Tue, 10 Dec 2013 02:59:46 GMT

Hi,

Any ideas why when clicking save as archicad is not making a .bpn file in the same folder.
It was working up until this morning?

How do I turn it on again?

Thanks

Todd

In Work Environment under Data Safety and Integrity, check the "Make Backup Copy" box.

Sorry, didn't read your initial post properly. SAVE AS does not create a backup file (bpn), it just creates a copy of the file under a new name or location.
SAVE turns the previous version of the file into a BPN while updating the PLN
