Re: Windows problems

 

This bug is infuriating. When the backup database deletion code first went
in, it didn't work at all on Windows. I couldn't get the Qt file deletion
function to work, and just punted and used a Windows API call. This should
be the prime suspect. I'll investigate next week after the holidays.
