  2. Yes, unfortunately. That is why, if you want to be super-cautious, you may want to save and save multiple backups. Even then, what appears to be a clean restore may already have the seeds of file corruption and you end up in the same boat anyway.
So perhaps the best way to deal with file corruption is to avoid overdoing the bulleted points in my response above while at the same time not living in fear of it. Stuff happens but I would not let it overly limit your game-playing freedom and flexibility, and therefore your fun.


How do I make more than one backup?
Since there is no 'save as' file function... and I thought all the files for the game are spread out...
Or are they all in one folder? If they are, then copying and saving that folder as a different name would be easy, I would think.

Ohh... http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...kup-files.html
So if I save and rename the file from here into a different folder for each extra backup, that would do it all?
