Currently, every update that gets pushed out causes the database files to get wiped if the user isn't savvy or alert enough to create a backup of them before doing so, making the application unreliable for at least half its intended purpose.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Update VRCX
  2. Observe settings being reset and information being lost

Expected behavior
The application should never wipe database files on update. If able, it should update the structure when required, but in every instance of an update, it should always generate a backup copy of those files before any destructive changes are made.

What version you are running
VRCX 2025.10.27
