Acronis mobile Backup (to computer) - number of versions/Size

Thread needs solution

The Acronis Mobile backups seems to have a copy of everything each day the backup runs.   Unless there's some trickery involved to make it look like each day has everything.

Is there trickery involved and I don't need to worry?  Or is it actually keeping multiple copes of file and I need some way of limiting the number of versions kept.

David, you are correct in that the Acronis Mobile backup app makes a new full backup every time that it runs and will continue to eat up space without providing any automatic method of cleaning up that data!

I now always ensure that Acronis Mobile on my phone is set to only backup when I trigger it to do so manually!

You can safely delete unwanted copies of the backup data using the 'Acronis Drive' option shown in Explorer, or else use the [Browse files] button in the ATI GUI for your Mobile backup task, which will open the backup location.
