I have had all the contents of my source folder deleted, and not sent to the windows deleted files bin, on a couple of occasions: the first time I thought it was because I didnt have the 'backup previously generated files ' box ticked; but never the less I would have thought that, at the least, prompting before complete deletion would be courteous. Where is this 'backup directory', where it should have gone on the second occasion?, it is mentioned in the manual, but I cant find it, is it imaginary?. I find this behaviour from an official release ST tool astonishing. Are the developers doing it for LULZ?!. I now make a copy of the source folder before touching cube mx. I see there is a new STM cube release, but I don't want to spend time changing horses mid stream in a project, learning the new tool, and then finding that something else is broken. Code Composer studio or Dave would not do this. Thank goodness eclipse keeps a history where stm cube cant silently erase it. Silently erasing the entire source file directory contents is one of the grossest transgressions I can remember of a development tool . Perhaps I should be grateful it didnt reformat something whilst it was at it.
