Deleting old backups after installing new version

Thread needs solution

I upgraded from Acronis True Image Home 2010 Plus Pack to Acronis True Image 2018 Perpetual. I have many backups from the old version and do not see a way of loading them into 2018 to manage the deletion. I need to free up space on my NAS but see warnings about using file manager to delete Acronis files.

On the main GUI screen use the "v" to add your existing backups.

Thank you for the reply thomasjk. When I use the method you suggest I am unable to see files on my NAS, see attached folder.

UPDATE: I used the URL to the archive location and that seems to solve the issue with seeing the NAS contents. Is that normally required?

The listing of particularly NAS seems to depends on the networking protocols that are active on the NAS. Without tweaking my Synology NAS is not listed.  I find it quicker to use the device name to find the NAS

Thank you everyone, looks like I have a handle on this now.

Dale, thanks for the update. Always good when someone gets to where they want to be.
