After using the DeLorean for my backups, I decided to add a few more features in the DeLorean v5.1:
- It is now possible to change the location of the Backup, Restore, and Temp local directory to another destination. This will allow the user to be able to freely backup their settings in another filesystem that is dedicated for storage\system backups. HOWEVER, THIS WILL NOT MOVE ANY DATA TO A NEW LOCATION!
- It is now possible for the user to decide on wither or not to exclude typical video directories from being backed up. Directories that will be excluded (if set to True): ~\Videos, ~\My Videos, ~\MyVideos, ~\Movies, ~\My Movies, ~\MyMovies.
In addition, a new
extremely minor version of Bootless Star is also available. This update merely corrects a comment string that appears in the user configuration file.
Spoiler: SVN Changelog
Code: Select all

After the exclusion caller has been executed, it never properly terminated.
