change date of backup reminder

[maggiej12]

Hi, i currently had my ninja remind me to backup my files every Tuesday. I tried to change the day to Friday but it still reminds me on Tuesdays. Can you tell me how to get this resolved? When i go to do a backup it still says "friday" as the backup day but reminds me on tuesdays.

thanks

Hello maggiej12,

Thank you for your post.

If you set the backup to remind you every Friday then run the back up, can you check to see if it retains your settings after running the backup?

I just changed it back to Tuesday and ran a backup. It stills says Tuesday even after I restarted Ninja.

Hi maggiej12,

First, please save a copy of your license key. You'll find that key in the Help > License Key menu.

Next, shut down NinjaTrader and open the Documents > NinjaTrader 7 folder.
In the NinjaTrader 7 folder is a file named 'Config' - select that file and move it to your desktop, then restart NinjaTrader.

Upon restarting, you'll need to re-enter your license key and reconfigure your data connection. After doing so, please re-set the backup reminder, then restart NinjaTrader and tell is if you experience any other issues.

Won't I lose all my charts and drawings I have saved?

No this will not remove any saved settings within NinjaTrader such as drawing objects, charts, workspaces, etc.
