Also, make sure you check for changes to the original config file in this package between releases. Currently there are the following settings: #### Auto backup mode [](#auto-backup-mode) The `autoBackup` setting allows your original file to be backed up automatically before saving. Set it to `true` to agree. #### Backup location [](#backup-location) The `backupPath` setting is used to specify where your file is backed up. This value is a sub path (sub-folder) from the root folder of the project application. #### Always create backup folder [](#always-create-backup-folder) The `alwaysCreateBackupFolder` setting is used to request that the backup folder always be created, whether or not the backup is performed.
