SaveGameBackup.net is een programma waarmee een backup gemaakt kan worden van de savegames van de diverse op een Windows-pc aanwezige spellen. Dat is vooral handig wanneer een schijf opnieuw geformatteerd wordt. Savegames worden namelijk op veel verschillende plaatsen op de computer opgeslagen en dat is dus altijd een hoop zoekwerk. Backups kunnen naar een andere locatie op de computer of het netwerk, of zelfs naar een clouddienst als Dropbox worden gemaakt. Er is ondersteuning aanwezig voor ruim duizend spellen. De download is slechts 1MB groot, maar het programma heeft wel versie 4 van het .Net Framework nodig. In versie 1.2 zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:
Added:Fixed:
- Dutch translation.
- Russian translation.
- New method of registry detection. And modified the existing detection.
- Disallow invalid file name characters in Add/Edit Custom Entry (will replace invalid characters with "_").
- Determine read/write status on the backup path.
- Ability to open current backup path in the main window. Click the Backup Path link above the text box.
- Confirmation dialog to "Remove Entry".
Changed:
- Very rare SQLite unhandled exception.
- Very rare crash upon launch.
- Process standard database option and suboptions will now save properly.
- When a Save Path was opened (link near the status area), a new explorer.exe process would launch. Opening a Save Path will now open your default file explorer.
- Database and app update issue on systems that don't use "." as a decimal seperator.
- Database would fail to update (seperate issue).
- Improved custom mask logic. Resolves issues where a mask was specified, but was not always respected during backup. This issue would manifest itself by preventing backed up assets from appearing on the restore list.
- Various translation issues.
- INI issue regarding empty space not being removed from previously saved strings.
- Improved registry hive/key detection in Add/Edit Entry.
- You can no longer type in the Save Path/Note area.
- Will no longer fail to exit if you are using a USB stick, and remove the stick before you close SGB.
- Improved error handling for Ignore List.
- Dates will now display with your locale-specific format.
- LinkLabel tabbing.
- Made minor adjustments to the UI of the main window.
- Slightly increased the width of the Add/Edit Custom Entry windows to help accomodate new translations.
- New icon, several new graphics.
- Embedded System.Data.SQLite.dll into the main executable.
- You can now type in the Save Path text boxes throughout the program.
- Hide Save Path/Note (near the status area) when you are on the Options tab or About tab.
- Replaced Foreign detection options with Games. There are only 3 foreign assets. This option wasn't needed.
- Now using reg.exe instead of regedit.exe for games that require registry key backup.
- Changed wording on some controls to better resemble their usage.
- Moved the Ignore List and Custom Entries buttons to the main screen. They are now just a graphic with a tooltip.
- Lots of code streamlining.
