"validating all versions of backup" how about a single version option!!!
I keep many versions of backups. It takes a LONG time to validate them all. and this times increases with each backup.

You want me to only have a few backups of whatever partition. That does not fit my needs as I often have to go way back - Win 8 is still very young. And I have often needed data or programs from 2 years ago. I do full versions as it works much better with my archiving system.

So my work-around is to put a previous version of a backup in a parallel or higher (not lower) folder, then do the backup which backs up whatever and verifies it.

A very manual process with my i7 SSD system. estupido!

Kris,

The validation choices (as you've discovered) have changed in 2013, perhaps posting your thoughts in the 'wishlist' topic on the front page of the forum is more likely to get Acronis' attention.

Thanks. Done.
