No guarantee that this information is actually working or will stay there if it does, but I was told that there was some ini file parameters controlling the gamedb backup in the game.ini file.

[/Script/ConanSandbox.ConanGameMode]
PeriodicBackupInterval=

For what I know, the period is the number of seconds between two backups, so a very high value like 9999999.0f would basically disable it (no idea if the game would even try to save it on exit, so be careful)

There’s also a MaxPeriodicBackupsToKeep but it does not seem to be doing anything (probably some remnants of old code)
