Acronis 2018 - Diff backups

Hi

 

I created a new backup after installation and have set the backup to Custom and then Differential.

 

The first backup was obviously a full backup by default and week later I have started a backup and I was expecting the backup to be differential per the settings and thus take less time? But its looking like its doing it again?

 

On the destination drive i see

My disks_full_b1_s1_v1.tib

My disks_diff_b1_s2_v1.tib

 

The source and destination are all the same 

 

Am I doing something wrong?

KP, welcome to these User Forums.

If the files on your backup drive are as you quoted above, then all is correct.  The difference in the file names show what type of backup file was created, so the first file will always show _full_ and any differential files will show as _diff_ in the name.
