The file should be backed up before it was saved #41

What is the point of having 2 identical copies of the same file - at original location and backup directory?

I mean, for a true auto backup the current file at original location should be copied to the backup directory BEFORE it's being written with new data. Current implementation doesn't make sense, when file saved, the original data is lost.
