Acronis True Image 2018 Clean up old versions
I had way too many backups taking up huge amounts of space so deleted old backups using Windows Explorer. I now discover that I should not have used Windows Explorer because the metadata does not get updated.
2 questions ...
1) How to rectify the current metadata
2) How to delete old backups in future (I cannot find any delete capability in ATI 2018)
I've read something about a "Management Console" but cannot find it. Please advise. Thank you.

Thanks Steve, that worked.
At first it kept giving me the "can't find 1st item" error message even after I clicked ignore. I just kept clicking the Ignore button every time it gave me the error message. Perhaps it was looking for each of the backups i had deleted and there were a lot of them as I've been backing up every Saturday for a year. Eventually it stopped giving me the error message and it's now working.
When I delete any tib files now I will immediately run Validation afterwards.
Thanks for your help.
