Would it not make better sense that when you click on backup or snapshot it automaticaly records the database / snapshot as a date time file name in the directory you have specified rather than the present and previous which is easy to overwrite and then regret the move

this would give you more data recovery options, especially as we have no "UNDO" facility with actinic

I agree with this. I use this system of backups on our server for various MySQL databases for the very same reason.

Chris - it's a good suggestion. I'll add it to the wish list.
