1) Version 1.5

2) Fixed broken paths on Win7 and Win10.  The previous code didn't handle it properly
   if there was a space in the absolute path to your saved state.
3) Changed the backup code to use "rename" instead of "move".  Win10 couldn't handle
   long pathnames with "move" but it does with "rename".  Go figure.
