Action
Default Destination Directory

Used for new (Untitled) Profiles.

Temporary Directory

Specifies the directory where Abakt will save temporary files containing the list of files that should be in/excluded.
This is also the directory that ZipForge uses while updating and testing backups.
If empty, the system's default temporary directory will be used.

7-Zip Executable

Set the path to 7z.exe. Get 7-Zip from http://sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/

Convert filenames in @listfile to OEM

Enable to convert the filenames in the @listfile (7-Zip command line parameter) to default DOS (OEM) character set of Windows.

If disabled, the filenames will be encoded as UTF-8 by Abakt. This is 7-Zip's default setting in releases 4.33 and newer.

Confirm 'File Operation | Delete'

If enabled Abakt will show a popup asking to confirm a Delete operation.

Abakt will not ask for confirmation if it is started using command line parameters, because this would disrupt automation.
