cleaning up the computer (disk space) ?

Post by gypsy101 »

question for the Mixcraft guys

I'm cleaning up things & I do a lot of "Saves" which creates a backup per save.
I can get back a lot of disk space by deleting older backups & I'm wondering if Mixcraft (7 or 7.5) has or could have a setting where it could auto delete backups before a certain date or after a certain user set number of backups kind of like Windows.

example,I have a project w/ probably 75 backups @ around 118kb per backup. I would like to save only the last 5 & maybe the original backup.

That's only around 8MB, which is minuscule on an average drive today (500GB drive).
I do tons of large projects and I never worry about deleting backup files.
There's no automatic backup delete function in Mixcraft.
