Moving a Backup

Thread needs solution

I moved a backup on Acronis Secure Zone to a stand alone hard drive I use for backups.  After moving the original and incremental backup files the full is named: "_full_b2_s1_v1." (with no extension for the name).  The incrimental file name is: "_inc_b2_s2_v1." They can't be renamed and can't be deleted or accessed.  What should I do?

Eugene, welcome to these user forums.

Have you restarted your computer since moving these backup files in case there are any locks being held on them?

Do you have a second computer that you could connect your stand alone hard drive to and attempt to rename these files on that computer?

Do you have very much else on the stand alone hard drive?  If not, then it may be quicker to format the drive and start over again if you are not worried about trying to recover these backup files.
