Incremental in Free Version
Posted: Tue Apr 01, 2014 5:48 pm
Using the free version 5, build 346:
Created a job to Mirror backup data to an external drive. Ran correctly. I then created a second job to backup the same data to a different external drive -- the second copy I keep away from home in case of fire/theft etc.
Now a month later, I reran the first job, and it has only done an incremental backup --- not what I wanted as I had formatted the drive in preparation for the backup.
Why is this happening - as I haven't bought the full Backup4all version?
I'm deleting C:\Users\xxxxxxx\AppData\Roaming\Softland\FBackup 5\*.* to see if that allows a full backup to work. If so then this is not very efficient!!!!
