Active protection

Thread needs solution

I upgraded to TI 2021 b:39216, and even the "explorer.exe" is in the excluded file in Active protection, it is impossible to delete a *.tib file from Windows explorer.

Is there any trick except disabling and eabling the active protection ??? 

Thanks for any answer.

Jean, see KB 61844: Acronis True Image 2019, 2020 and 2021: How to delete old backups which is the recommended method for deleting unwanted backup files.

The only other option is to disable AAP to delete files but this can cause issues if those files belong to any active tasks shown in the ATI GUI.

Concur with Steve on this, deleting Acronis backup files using any method other than the Acronis application itself will introduce corruption to the Acronis applications internal database and cause further problems for the user.
