I agree Assman, It is a more greater risk on the subject of RED Optimized.
Don't get us wrong though, RedFrog did make a good effort on making life a little easier on us with it.
We cannot judge weather it is RedFrogs RED Optimized thats causing the problem. I wouldn't think he would change the way it saves or anything.
I wounder though, Could it be possible to change the folder where RED saves the backups and without the Tilde ~, it might make it easier to know where your backups are kept in a seperate folder to where the orginals are saved.
Just because RED optimised was made by a friend of yours doesn't mean its entirely 100% stable. I know REDFROG made it and it makes some things convenient but that still doesn't change the fact its been modified by a 3rd party and without the proper soruce code to do a proper recompile of the program all sorts of things could be wrong with it.
Thats like your friend adding nitro to his car and then you run around telling everyone that you garuntee 100% (by the sounds of it) it's not any less stable than the unmodified vehicle... Thats just stupid.
Well, if any of you have any decent problem solving skills. My first step would to drop the 3rd party app.
I don't understand his problem.
I did not redesign anything on saving or backup behaviour of RED. Only layout changes.
It can't be working worse than RED. Why not try original RED and tell us what happens with that one. If you havent deleted RED, you can always switch to that when you have the RED optimized version, too.
