Will not validate the requested version!

Thread needs solution

I make a daily backup. Let me call it
C:\Acronis\daily_date.tib

I then copy it to my USB drive for security. Let me call it
E:\backup\daily_date.tib

I then browse in Windows to E:\backup\daily_date.tib.
Right click and choose Archive->validate.

Every time it starts validating but says:
Validating C:\Acronis\daily_date.tib
NOT
Validating E:\backup\daily_date.tib

Also, I can not seem to find a way (as I could in earlier versions) to navigate to by copied version and choose validate.

While complaining why is there not a main Validate button/menu as there is Backup and Recover?

Actually, its' the internal database that is confused, it knows where it made this file and and just can't get over it. ;)

Try this, open ati and on the diskmode backup screen select browse to find the backup and select to add it to the backup list. then choose to validate and see if it accepts the backup as a diff one that the original.

Thanks for the suggestion. I imagine it will work, although it should not be necessary.

It reminds me of another problem with the database. It does not sync with my file system.
If I have 10 daily backups in a folder and delete the oldest 5, ATI still tells me there are 10 versions and when I make my next one I think it increments to 11. It definitely does not revert to 6.
If ATI is not going to sync to the file system then it should, at least, offer an easy way to delete old versions through ATI that would keep everything in sync.

If I have missed something obvious (or hidden), please let me know.
