Renaming filename.tib each time backup

Thread needs solution

I have a set of 5 portable HDD all named the same with 5 directories Monday to Friday.

The backup scheme is "single version" but after a while the file names start getting codes added and they stop overwriting the file name in each directory of the portable HDD. The file names starts looking like: Monday-Data.tib_5FAD16CB-7E33-4974-AE49-F0D678AA9308.tib

What is causing "5FAD16CB-7E33-4974-AE49-F0D678AA9308" to be added and how do I stop it?

It's a bug in the program -- I believe it's the ID used in the windows registry but it shouldn't be appended to the file. Does this happen all the time or did the prog work as expected and then suddenly start doing this?

Acronis True Image Home works as expected replacing the file name each time and after about a week starts to add all the numbers and letters to the file name
