Despite the development had ceased, I still depend on the DeLorean backup solution. Though, I noticed some issues with the DeLorean for a few years now - but could not provide any time to correct the problems. I also ran my system with no backup builds available, except for the basic Windows File History. While this temporary workaround works, I cannot assure that the files will be available if the system were to ultimately crash. So, I finally devoted a few hours to push out a few fixes, but no features were added. I cannot guarantee that I will continue to provide any additional surprise fixes in the future, but I hope this helps to extend the life of this program for a few more years to come. Enjoy!

Changelog:

26 March. 2024

  • Use quotation on output redirections for STDOUTs
    Without the quotations, if a file path contains any spaces - then the output would not be correct, yet the left overs would be considered an additional arguments that would be invalid. This would cause the program to crash as a result.
  • When initializing %SourcePath% and %Output%, encapsulate it with quotations.
    This will assure that any spaces introduced into the string will be properly part of the assignment.
  • Use quotations on %Output% when inspecting if the assigned path exists.
    Without this, the IF extCMD would see the string with spaces (or any special characters) as a command\instruction when the value is seen as a true condition.
  • When using the DEL extCMD, %Output% needs to be quoted
    We do NOT need a Bumblebee moment.... oh dear, what have I done :'(....

  • Added Tracing to the ignore list in the DeLorean Project Module.
    I could be grossly wrong, but it seems that %UserProfile%\Tracing\ is intended to hold data for Win10 Skype instance? The file is locked by the application, which will cause the backup operation to fail.
  • Applied a few delimiters to the list
    Windows default time\date schemes can contain spaces within the date format, and time contains a comma for milliseconds. Previously, this could break the %core.Time% and %core.Date% expectations.
  • Revised the %core.Date% to use the English region time and date formatting
    When I was developing this program, I used the German Time and Date region formatting. With using the German formatting, the %DATE% or 'DATE /T' would provide this formatting: DD.MM.YY. Yet, the English formatting is: DDD MM/DD/YYYY. Because of this inconsistency, and no real easy way to quickly fix this, the regional formatting will have to be set as 'English'. With that, the %core.Date% will contain: Day, Month, and Year - but still following the user's English regional settings.
