What is the purpose of the Middlewares touchgfx_backup directory?

This was created after saying "Yes" to the following question:

I assume it is so one doesn't lose any modifications made to the framework or other files?

Do I need to maintain this directory?

Hello,

If your project is working after updating to a new version, you can delete the backup directories. No need to maintain them :)

What do I do if my project is not working? I am having all kinds issues getting my previous project to work.

I am seeing MANY issues with painters giving me assert messages. This kind of error happens when instantiating an object, so I can't just run to a line in the debugger to find where the issue is. I am using a lot of different painters and it is becoming tedious commenting them out to figure out which one is giving me the issue.

Will the previous framework version work with the new Designer?

Each version of framework works with the corresponding Designer version. You cannot use different versions for the framework and the Designer.
