GUID appended to archive filename
I have seen several posts with similar problems but none as simple as my situation and no solutions for any.
Windows 7 Pro 64 bit
Acronis True Image Home 2011 Update 2 Build 6868
Have uninstalled and re-installed with no change.
Daily Scheduled full disk image backup
For 3 or 4 days all works well replacing the backup .tib file.
Then the backup file .tib filename has a GUID followed by a '1' appended to it while being created.
After creation the '1' is removed with a file rename.
If nothing done, after a few days , the process repeats itself and now there are two GUIDs in the filename.
There is nothing complicated here, a simple image of a single SSD created daily.
The drive containing the backup file has loads of room.
The log file of the failure has the message 'Cannot create a file when that file already exists (0xFFF0)'
I have a second machine with the same software doing the same backup scheme and all works well.

Yes, total file replacement every backup.
Disk image.

Interesting. Maybe there is an issue with that backup scheme in the latest build. See http://forum.acronis.com/forum/9509
Can you try another backup scheme to see if you have the same issue? If you have single version, maybe a custom full, keeping only 1 recent version, or an incremental...

I will try a custom full.

Are you splitting the image by any chance?

No, I am not splitting the image. A single file 14 gigs.
After changing to Custom Full, I will probably not have the problem because it does not replace the backup file.
I will now file have Backup.tib, Backup2.tib, Backup3.tib, etc.
Also, Database\archives.xml will continue to grow.
I guess I can live with this, every two weeks, deleting and creating a new backup scheme.

With a custom full, you can turn on auto cleaning and keep only a limited number of versions (most reliable options).
