    kltpzyxmrm - 5 days ago

    I like redundant backups with Keepass, particularly since I use OneDrive and Google Drive and IMO they are not always reliable with sync lags and virtual drives.

    Along with Save button, It was suggested I use the "Recent Files" list. There are 12 items in my recent menu, My problem is, including the Google virtual drives, I have to perform four backup with every database change.

    The Google related ones look similar, they change order every time one is selected, and it's hard to tell which one actually syncs with Keepass.

    Maybe that's not the case for everyone, but, with my novice brain, it's a confusing annoyance and I end up devoting a lot more time to the task than I like.

    I'd like to see a Keepass option for "Database Backup" where the user can list only the legitimate backup locations, with the ability to back up all at once

    What is your preferred backup tool?

    You need a backup plug-in.
    They are listed in the top left corner of the Plug-ins page.

    Do you have a preference?

    Don't use any of them so I can't say which will work for you.

    Don't use the ones with a green icon next to them, they are for KeePass 1.

    cheers, Paul

      "Don't use the ones with a green icon"

      I wasn't aware. DB_backup is green.

    I can't get any of these backup plugin to work. Maybe someone out there can advise. They are all 5-9 years old. One crashed/froze Keepass, and I couldn't close it, There was no evidence of it in Task Manager. I had to restart my computer.

    Example: It says there was a backup. No backup created

    With warning suggest there was an error. Did you read the logs?

    cheers, Paul
