If have the portable version of QM installed here:
f:\portableapps\quickmacrosportable\
Then the path to the MAIN qml containing all macros is:
f:\portableapps\quickmacrosportable\Data\My QM\Portable.qml
My questions
1)
Can I copy the "Portable.qml" file while QM is running?
Or do I need to close QM first?
Windows uses "Shadow Copy (VSS)": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_Copy
But I do not know if .qml files can be backuped while QM is running.
2)
And is there an internal command that can be used for the SAVE command?
(The command that get's executed when pressing the blue/purple disk icon)
I currently have an .exe compile script that runs on QM exit (it waits for QM to be fully closed before it runs backup).
But this script sometimes waits 30 secons for QM to be full closed.
Although QM makes auto backup, I have 2 additional locations where I backup .qml that's why I added this method.
