Saving Project backups
For peace of mind, I like to be able to save projects on more than one hard drive. Also, given the possibility of a corrupt file, I like the idea of having multiple copies of the project file.
I understand that Resolve does not create individual project files; they’re all part of a single database.
How does Resolve allow its users to create backups somewhere other than the original location? Can I create a backup without causing linkage problems to the original “Projects” file?
Thank you.

Hi,
you have to export them.
And then you keep them anyplace you want.n.
Peace!

Basically the same rules apply as most NLEs; there are consolidate options and then there is the more straightforward export of a .drp — but it is still going to expect the source media to be where you initially linked it to create the project database.

“To Backup Project” creates bigger files and takes longer.
