TI 2019 backup cleanup tool - Where is it

Thread needs solution

Listed in the features of True Image 2019 is a backup cleanup tool where you can manually delete backup copies you don't need. I know we have the automatic cleanup but sometimes you want to delete a backup manually. I also know you can boot from the recovery media and do it from there, but it would be much easier to do it within Windows. Is the backup cleanup tool a separate feature? I cannot seem to find it. I am running the current build which is 13660. I am attaching a picture as shown in the TI 2019 features.

Mike, the backup cleanup tool is found in the options menu for each individual task in the GUI.

I couldn't find it either but at last we have the feature that we've been waiting for and that should have been available years ago.

Steve...thanks for the answer. 

M Harris,
I had stayed still in the 2013 version
because this function was missing.
Now happy to have passed 2019

This option only appears for local backups; not for backups to Acronis cloud. You have to use the online Dashboard to do the clean-up.CloudBackup CleanUp.jpg 

The options are a little different - as far as I am aware this facility has been available for as long as I have been using cloud backups.
