I just logged onto one of my accounts and I soon found out that all the settings had been reset including my large market quick bar which I don't want to remake. I last used the account this morning and things were fine. If backups are automatically made for the settings files, where can I find them? |

That sucks. Want a tissue? OT: Your settings may still be in
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_program_files_(x86)_ccp_eve_tranquility\settings
but it's unlikely.

I feel you. As I have painfully discovered, if eve crashes, it resets everything. I've had to do this with multiple clients today. It sucks. CCP what have you done now?
I have a good way to back up everything. I made backups of backups this go round...

Here's a simple script that automatically backup your eve setting as well restores it. Copy this in a notepad and save it as a .bat file.
@echo off
:start
rem Blue Binary's backup settings tool
color 8
echo.
echo.Eve settings (Vista)
echo.====================
echo.(B)ackup settings
echo.(R)estore settings
echo.
set choice=
set /p choice=Choose to either backup or restore client(s) settings :
echo.
if not '%choice%'=='' set choice=%choice:~0,1%
if '%choice%'=='b' goto backup
if '%choice%'=='B' goto backup
if '%choice%'=='r' goto restore
if '%choice%'=='R' goto restore
echo "%choice%" is not valid please try again
echo.
goto start
:backup
for /F %%i in ('dir /b /ad "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CCP\EVE"') do (
if exist "%HOMEPATH%\Documents\EveBackup\%%i" (
echo.Backing up the settings for %%i
xcopy "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CCP\EVE\%%i\settings\*.*" "%HOMEPATH%\Documents\EveBackup\%%i" /q/r/y
echo.
) else (
echo.Backing up the settings for %%i
mkdir "%HOMEPATH%\Documents\EveBackup\%%i"
xcopy "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CCP\EVE\%%i\settings\*.*" "%HOMEPATH%\Documents\EveBackup\%%i" /q/r/y
echo.
)
)
echo.Backup location is: Documents\EveBackup
echo.
goto eof
:restore
if exist "%HOMEPATH%\Documents\EveBackup\%%i" (
for /F %%i in ('dir /b /ad "%HOMEPATH%\Documents\EveBackup"') do (
if exist "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CCP\EVE\%%i" (
echo.Restoring the settings for %%i
xcopy "%HOMEPATH%\Documents\EveBackup\%%i\*.*" "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CCP\EVE\%%i\settings" /q/r/y
echo.
) else (
echo.The directory %%i does not exist.
echo.Creating a new directory...
echo.This error appears because either:
echo.
echo.1 - There is a fresh Eve install and the cache has not been set yet.
echo. No problem...
echo.
echo.2 - You have installed Eve to a different directory.
echo. The settings will fail to install properly!
echo.
mkdir "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CCP\EVE\%%i\settings"
echo.Restoring the settings for %%i
xcopy "%HOMEPATH%\Documents\EveBackup\%%i\*.*" "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CCP\EVE\%%i\settings" /q/r/y
echo.
)
)
) else (
echo.There is nothing to restore!
echo.
)
:eof
