Backup deleted one of my backup files.
My hard disk failed, but I had a backup from 4 weeks previous which was made with True image home. I had the backup safe on an external drive. I had to do fresh install of win 7 on a new drive because the acronis rescue media gave a fault. I downloaded acronis 2019 and verified my backup file which was good. I decided to backup the new installation, which completed OK, but in doing so, acronis deleted my original (only) backup. Now I am completely stuffed with no possible way of recovering my system. Why did it delete my old backup? no warning was given?
Thanks for any advice.
Sandy

Thanks Steve, It was a different file name and it was a full backup. perhaps by default, the program deletes the previous backup? anyway. I am currently trying to recover the deleted file, but I doubt it will be recoverable. Oh well, the world won't stop turning, but I was a wee bit annoyed for a while :-)

Sandy, I haven't come across this type of behaviour previously here in the forums, or in my own experience, so difficult to know why or how this has happened?
