How do I delete old version?

Thread needs solution

I have my incremental set to 5 and then a full backup is created again, but it is not deleting the old full backup or old incrementals. I thought I had it set correctly. What have I done wrong. See 2 attachments.

One other unrelated question. I am on 2013. Is it worth updating to 2015?

If you changed any configuraration settings later after you created the original task, this may have confused the program.

The deletion should have occurred 7 days after inc #5 (backup S6) or was completed. Deletion should have occurred after B2Full was completed.
If you have the storage room, let run until the next Full is completed to see if it settles into its delete routine.

Or,
you can stop using the existing task and create a new task pointing to a new storage folder with a new task name.

Thanks Grover. I just wanted to make sure my settings were correct. This will not be the first time Acronis seems to have got confused.

Syd,
Many problems are user inflicted. Best NOT to use the Edit settings option and not make any changes. If changes needed, stop using the task needing changes and start a completely new task with all the correct settings.

This may help.
