Another minor one Pierre.
 
Win.7 x64
IQ portable 91c
 
The setting 2.4.5
Delete timestamped auto-backup files after (n) days
is not working here.
 
info from the manual page about this (which I wrote though!) 3. Backup your database, Encryption
--------------------------
This option deletes all but the last timestamped auto-backup of each day that are at least n days old.
Delete is performed once per day, on the first occasion after midnight.
-------------------------
 
I noticed my backup folder was gigabytes in size and I see that nothing has been deleted since November, when the file was created. AFAIK I setup the backup (see settings below) at that time I created the file.
 
 
 
Note:
better to have too many backups than too few, so it's no priority for me, i.e.
just reporting !
 
I have no backup on my second machine (use dropbox to sync), but will set it up and report back if it also broken there

Confirmed and fixed in v92

IIUC this is not working as expected here:
 
Options 2.4.5 "Delete timestamped auto-backup files after (n) days"
> This option deletes all but the last timestamped auto-backup of each day that are at least n days old.
 
The option was set to 5 for my portable install (95b):
*all* backups older than five days old have been deleted here,
(instead of one being kept for each day)
