Export does not remove previous files #102

Closed Sir-Neo closed 5 months ago

Sir-Neo commented 1 year ago

Export option to keep a single file does not work as expected. Instead of removing the old files (even though delete old exports option is checked and timestamp is removed) it simply creates another copy with a number in brackets.

It looks like the deletion is failing for some reason. What type of storage location are you using (internal, external, cloud)? Can you post a logcat?

That would be internal storage. Sorry, no logcats. If it helps it is running on an old mi9 on miui12

Without a logcat, I'm not going to be able to troubleshoot the problem - sorry.

Sir-Neo commented 1 year ago

Understandable. No worries. You can keep it in mind for the future if it comes up again. Cheers

One thought: are you doing manual or scheduled exporting? The deletion feature is only designed to work with the latter.

Sir-Neo commented 1 year ago

That would be the automated one
