QLog automatically performs a database backup at each run if the interval of 7 days has passed since the last backup, or if the backup is forced (application database scheme upgrade). The backup ADX file is saved in the following directories:

  • Linux - $HOME/.local/share/hamradio/QLog
  • Linux - flatpak - $HOME/.var/app/io.github.foldynl.QLog/data/hamradio/QLog
  • Windows - C:/Users/<USER>/AppData/Local/hamradio/QLog
  • MacOS - $HOME/library/Application support/hamradio/qlog

Old backup files are automatically deleted based on the following rules:

  • Keep a minimum number of backup files, set to 10.

QLog Database is located:

  • Linux - $HOME/.local/share/hamradio/QLog
  • Linux - flatpak - $HOME/.var/app/io.github.foldynl.QLog/data/hamradio/QLog
  • Windows - C:/Users/<USER>/AppData/Local/hamradio/QLog
  • MacOS - $HOME/library/Application support/hamradio/qlog

QLog Internal Settings:

  • Linux - $HOME/.config/hamradio/QLog.conf
  • Linux - flatpak - $HOME/.var/app/io.github.foldynl.QLog/config/hamradio/QLog.conf
  • Windows - in Windows Registry
  • MacOS - $HOME/Library/Preferences/com.hamradio.qlog.plist

Please keep in mind that currently the DB file and the configuration file are an indivisible pair. It means that it is not possible to transfer only DB files between computers.
