multiple _reserved copy of backup taking up too much space

Thread needs solution

I am running home 2012. I keep getting multiple versions of the _reserved copy of backups that are taking up more space than I feel necesary.

Why is this happening, how can I control how many full version backups are being kept?

Thank you,

Steve

Unfortunately, you have no ways of controlling retention of reserve backups. If you want to do so, simply create another task. There is no performance penalty as a reserve backup is really another backup, not a file copy.
