Hi,
After installing LyX, the backup directory is empty (Preferences >
Paths). Does that mean that no backups are created by default or that
the backups are created even though "Backup documents, every ...
minutes" is checked (Preferences > Look & Feel > Document Handling)
(btw. Look & Feel seems a misnomer for backup settings). Or is a
backup created in the directory of the lyx file (the title bar shows a
directory even for new not yet saved files, so I suppose these files
are backup there as well)?

My backup directory path is empty and LyX automatically creates backups
in the document's directory. The backups have the extension .lyx~, so
they are considered "hidden files" by Mint, Ubuntu and I suspect other
Linux distros.
