I'm here everyday. I may not post much but I check new posts daily. I don't have issue with structure although the topis from when I first started using Puppy are less focused to what use to be "mainline" versions of puppy.

I was playing around with the idea of updating my server and chose BW32. I really like this flavor but I had some issues that came up.

I remember buying a tape drive. still have the thing. This is around the early 90s. I used it to back up my BBS system.
At the time it was pretty awesome even though I started a backup in spring and it ran until late summer :thumbup: LOL

Thanks for the help. I like the savefolder pet. been using the save folder backup since it was created.
I like that it dates the files .

I was just making use of these obsolete ...

I've been using save folders exclusively for 20 years. I set up a server on an old PC using xenialpup 7.5

Also.... can you convert back to a save folder if need be ...

The ads on computers don't bother me but on the roku app they all off a sudden started showing them for 30 or 40 seconds.
I have since told my doctor about 26 new medications I saw in ads. One had a side effect of sudden death from heart failure and after death, tuberculosis.
