Full Backup becomes 'Incremental' after first run

Thread solved

I set an 'Entire PC' backup to be a Custom Scheme and method as Full Backup, to an external USB Drive. Automatic Cleanup is set to retain 6 backups. The backup runs successfully, but after running once the settings then show 'Incremental;' as the backup method rather tan Full. Not seen this behaviour before and completely willing to accept it's user error - any ideas?

This is a known issue. It affects ATI 2017 to 2018. It is discussed in this ATI 2020 thread. There is a temporary workaround while we wait for the ATI servers to be reconfigured to overcome the problem (see this topic)..

Thanks Ian, I've read the thread you pointed me to and it seems I am one of many!  Not raised anything with Acronis support as it seems they are well aware of the issue, but will try the MMS workround.
