Hi all,

I've been using FBackup to run daily backups and have set the backup limit to 10. However, it seems the program doesn't automatically delete older backups once this limit is passed.

Is there a way to set FBackup so that it deletes the oldest backup version whenever a new one is created beyond the limit?

Appreciate any help—thanks in advance!

Hi,

In FBackup you cannot set a backup limit. Only 1 version is kept in destination.
That feature to keep multiple backup versions is available only in our commercial edition Backup4all.
We are not aware of any problem while applying to backup limit.

If you use our commercial edition and you have the problem described, please send us the last backup log and the .bkc catalog file to support[at]backup4all[dot]com, to see what the problem is.
