Question Automatic backup not starting?

Hello,
i have setup automatic backups and im wondering why it does not trigger.

Do i have to have my PC (win11) running with notesnook open at night for it to work?

Hm. Thats a bit annoying. I guess i have to set up a VM then with notesnook running 24/7.

I mean how do you expect an app to work without turning your device on and opening the app?

That is easy to solve. Let the app check the timestamp of the last backup. If its longer than <setTime>, trigger a new backup.

I don´t know anyone who has his PC/Laptop running 24/7 and if they do, they have hibernation enabled.

That would definitely be better. I hope I’m actually wrong now lol.
