Delete 2011 - Apologies from a newbie

Thread needs solution

Thanks in advance... I have upgraded from 2011 to 2012, should I delete 2011 and previous backups etc from my computer and start again? Or just run a full backup under 2012 and incremental thereafter... thanks K

As part of the upgrade process, 2011 should have been removed. You may still have a shortcut to 2011, but it will not bring up 2011 any more.
I think you would be better off creating a new task, and doing a new full backup as you suggest, but I would not delete the old backup files until you have verified that the new ones are working for you. You can still use the old backups for restore or recovery in the 2012.
