When i work on QGIS project (named "pro"), some file with this symbol appears in the workspace folder with the name "pro.qgs~":
I tried to open it- but with no success.
- How can i open it and what is the purpose of it?
- What to do, so this file will not create in the folder?
Answer
pro.qgs~ is a backup copy of pro.qgs. See: When saving a .qgs file in QGIS, another appears. Is this a backup?
If your project file gets corrupted for any reason, you can simply rename pro.qgs~ to pro.qgs and continue to work from there.
Like the original .qgs file, you can open it with a text editor.
Why would you want to prevent creation of a backup file?
