am experiencing a bit of a bug i hadn't noticed before with Aurora: the saved game backup protection aspect. an example is Borderlands 3, on Windows 10, via the Steam client. after playing for a while, i exit to desktop, Aurora waits a few seconds, then tells me that it failed to create a savegame backup, due to something about not being able to find a part of a path on me local ssd. i can recall it saying something about a .TMP file? i think it's telling me that a file or path doesn't exist? have tried to tweak it a bit, with no success. anyone who knows about this issue have anything working thoughts?
can you grab a screenshot and upload it here?

after failed attempts to get Windows 10 to record screenshots of the bug, i finally got Fraps to do a nice one for me. here is the shot of the bug:
After you opened the trainer on the savegame protection bar there is a button to open the backup folder. In this folder there should be a "Ignorelist.txt" file. If you open and add a new line with:
*.TMP
It will ignore these files for this game and the backup should complete.
//edit: I just tested it on upcoming Aurora preview where savegame protection has been massively reworked and I'm happy to let you know that this is no longer a problem. Meanwhile you can use the workaround above.

MUUUUCH obliged, so much appreciated for the upcoming update! *happy dance*, as i was really concerned about that bit. until then, i'll implement that workaround as per the ignore list suggestion. big hugs to all ye lads at CH! 😍
just a follow up to let the staff at CH know that the latest version of Aurora has fixed that annoying error message. just got out of a really good game of Borderlands 3 Super Deluxe Edition via Steam, n i showed a successful backup protection save! WELL-DONE, lads! WELL-DONE! 😀😁😍
Hey, that is awesome. We were kind of holding our breath there hoping it would work out. Thanks for letting us know!
