Version 1.1.0: (05/Feb/2025):
I consider this to be a stable release. The change rate should slow down. Changes:

I was having difficulty believing that I didn't test the plugin in my installed calibre. My regime for new things is test in portable first, and add to installed version if its OK. BR |

On my system, the config backup is ~100MB.

That is ≈ 6 times larger than mine. Is there anything obviously large in the folder? One thing might be a lot of images in resources, cc_icons, or tb_icons.
The attachment shows the largest few files on my system. EPUBCheck accounts for a lot of them. |

Remember, the config folder has all your plugins (and their supporting configs), Search(&R) History.
Explorer says mine is 300MB ![]() |

Since I have not used CheckBook in quite a while, I removed it from the Plugins preferences and the backup file shrank to 71MB. Looking at the plugins folder, the epubcheck stuff was still left in the CheckBooks directory so I manually removed it and the backup size dropped to 41.5MB. |

My config directory is 59.6MB. Shutting down calibre takes less then 30 seconds.

Now that I've deleted that 3Gb file from my config, shutdown is sub 2 seconds… calibre-debug -g reports:
[13.41] [BCF]: starting backup process [14.61] [BCF]: wrote config backup to C:\_AppData….zip. Size: 14,663,261 bytes. [14.62] [BCF]: finished I only have 9 plugins installed, editor plugins such as EPUBcheck, Shady Chars, Tag Mechanic etc are in Sigil; so, don't need them in calibre. If I need a plugin for a particular task I install it in portable, do what I need to do, and then nuke the portable and create a fresh install. BR |

Here is the plugin with translation support
Now with Spanish language There are strings like this that I haven't figured out how to mark for translation. timed_print(f'[{pi_name}]: starting backup process') Last edited by chaley; 02-07-2025 at 07:54 AM. Reason: Removed zip file |

I had to change several things. For example:
The changed version is attached. I'll release it once you tell me you are finished with any changes. EDIT: If you ran the version in @Dunhill's post then because of the change to the JSON configuration file name the history records for the plugin will be wrong.

Thanks @chaley for accepting the translation support and for most errors. Now the file is ready. Thank you! Last edited by chaley; 02-08-2025 at 05:16 AM. Reason: Removed zip file |

I released version 1.1.2 with your changes. Note: the first string in choose_file() should not be translated. It is the name of a JSON configuration item. I put underscores into the string to make that more obvious.
