All I do is rename the Euphoria\Backup folder to (say) "Eu2.4 Backup"
and then all is well - and you don't lose anything. Or you can go
into Backup and creat a folder called Backup and move everything
into that so that \Euphoria\Backup is empty but for one folder.
But I agree it is a pain if you forget to do something!
