Acronsi TI 2016 still trying to create a reserve copy

Thread needs solution

My backup is set to create a full system backup weekly and delete it when it is a month old.   I also had a reserve copy being created on a NAS box.  Everything was working fine until the NAS box failed.   I've not gotten a new NAS box yet and I saw that my weekly backups were failing because it could not create the reserve copy.   I went into the options and removed the "Create a reserve copy of my backups" option on the advanced tab.  There is no location or password set.  I saved the changes.

Two weeks have gone by now and the weekly backup is still failing because it can't create a reserve copy.   The automatic clean up is also not working anymore.   I think it is because the complete backup is not finishing.

How do I remove the task of creating a reserve copy of my weekly backup when it is no longer set to do so on the advanced tab?

Any help is appreciated.

The easiest way of resolving this issue would be to either use the option to 'Clone settings' for the original task, then modify these settings to reflect that you do not want a reserve copy, or alternatively to create a whole new backup task and start over with that.

You can remove the old, failing task configuration from the ATI GUI panel without deleting all the current backup image files, keeping those until your new backup is established.
