UltraEdit Backup Files

I love workign with UltraEdit though there is one thing that always annoys me.  Every time I update the contents of a file the program creates a backup file in the same directory.  Well for those of you who run in to the same problem here’s how you go about fixing this issue:

Go to:

Advanced -> Configuration ->File Handling -> Backup

By default the configurations are set up to create a .BAK file in the same directory.  Although the functionality is annoying I still think it’s quite useful.  So the best thign to do [in my oppinion] is to populate the default directory field with the a directory somewhere on your local computer.
