How do automate backups?

[JNDATHP]

I would like to backup my BI configuration but I think they live in the registry. What are people using to automate backups of settings?

I'm using the auto export within BI. I have Home Assistant restart BI everyday so I have a rolling set of backups for the last 3 days.

I was hoping there was a macro I could call.

I use both the built-in Auto export method above and bp2008's biupdatehelper.

Another handy tip is that you can save a human-readable registry backup on demand by holding down the shift key when doing a manual export.

See this post in thread Blue Iris registry file contain all camera settings?

I have used Reddawg's BI5updateMgmt-v2.0 along with BI auto export for years. You can never have enough backups of the BI registry as this is where ALL the settings are stored and ran from.
