Adding path to backup manager from corrupted data file dialog?

[elagache]

Dear Stu and WeatherCat fans,

I suppose I'm the first person in a very long time to have seen the corrupted data file dialog box.  That's a very good thing! 

Having reached this dialog box da' hard way!  I believe as it presently is displayed, it encourages you to make a mistake.  The default button is to initialize WeatherCat which means deleting all your old data.  The alternative button is to quit, but if you do that, you are stuck unless you remember how to launch WeatherCat in safe mode.  Since I didn't remember, I had to dig up my copy of the WeatherCat documentation to remember what was the control key to launch WeatherCat in safe mode so that I could reach the backup manager.

It's a small change, but if WeatherCat detects a corrupted data file and has backups, could a new button be added so that you can directly access the backup manager?  Also, reflecting on my experience, I think the default button should be quit, it might be better to try to understand your problem before attempting to do anything.

Cheers, Edouard

Edouard, if you had been the second person in America to upgrade to Yosemite (behind Steve) you would probably not be posting this problem in the first place.

Lol 

Yes, you're right Edouard - that dialog went in a while before the backup manager (a long while) and hence doesn't know about it.

I'll add this to the Pegasus list

Howdy Blick, Stu, and WeatherCat "ghost busters" . . . .

   . . . .  Really!?!?  You think there are ghosts in Mavericks, but none in Yosemite? . . . .

Thanks Stu!

Point taken.
