Configure Reporter to save local .mtd files to avoid issues with unreliable networked disks
You can create local backup copies of .mtd files. This might be useful if your network disks are unreliable. To do this, use these registry settings:
KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SPSS\TOM\FileBackupPath
Specifies the full path of a directory in which to create a second copy of a file every time that you use IDocument.Save().
Each time the file is saved, its name is prefixed with the current date and time, like this: YYYYMMDD_hhmmss_filename
The directory must already exist.
The default behavior is to not backup saved files.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SPSS\TOM\FileBackupMaxAge
(Applies only if FileBackupPath is set.) Specifies (in days) how long backup copies are kept. Files that are older than this are deleted when a new backup file is saved.
The default value is 60 days.
If you do not want the backup files to be deleted, specify 0.
