Ari-Pekka, welcome to these public User Forums.

What version of Acronis True Image are you using?  Is it ATI 2020 per this forum?

How did you create the Full backup?  Was this using the ATI GUI application in Windows, or did you use the Acronis Rescue Media to boot your computer to do this?

I would recommend reading through the first few sections of the ATI 2020 User Guide which will give you a good introduction to how to use the application, including the different types of backup scheme you can use.

Version 2020 Build 25700

At first, I made recovery cd's. Then I made a full backup through the program. "Acronis true Image" and from Back up now.

Please see the following documents:

KB 63239: Acronis True Image 2020: how to back up entire computer

KB 63252: Acronis True Image 2020: how to back up files or disks

Step 9. of the first document (63239) shows where Incremental backup is the default for all new backup tasks and where you can adjust the settings used.

The ATI 2020 User Guide: Full, incremental and differential backups section has more details of how these schemes work and can be used.
