Change of folder name

Thread needs solution

Hi
I have Acronis True Image home 2011 updated.
All of a sudden the folder name for my saved backups has changed. I programmed a differential backup with a full backup after 30 differential backups. I selected External HDD as where to save it and gave it a name i.e. SSD (C) backups. I did the initial full backup by selecting backup now and then everyday it did a differntial BU. Everything was fine untill it did the next full backup and thats when for no apparent reason the folder name changed.

Did you set a permanent drive letter for that external HD? If not, then perhaps the change is related to that. Otherwise, I haven't heard of True Image randomly changing a folder name.

Yes. It's M.

The folder name changed from SSD_(C)_Backups(30).tib (last of the differentials) to SSD_(0).tib

The use of parenthesis as part of the custom name has caused some issues as the program also uses them as well. I would suggest you start a new task pointing to a new empty target folder and omit any use parenthesis, periods, quotes. Use _ or - or + as separators.
