Archiving data should not clear all current data

[accountexeregister]

Problem

Currently, archiving data clears all current entries. Suppose I want to use archive as a backup, it would be a hassle to constantly archive the data and reloading it.

Suggestion(s)

• Modify archive to not clear all current entries

Team's Response

This is an designed feature. It seems that there is a misunderstanding about the meaning of the archive feature.

Archiving is done when you are done with the current file and want to archive it and start a new address book So the current entries should not exist in the working area e.g. The current address book after archiving. So clearing the current entries is an expected behavior. The file is automatically saved after each command. So there is no need to keep a backup file. What you do is actually exploit the feature of the archive to use it as a saving command.

So there is a misunderstanding of the archive feature by the tester. And it is why we are rejecting this bug.
