Acronis True image 2021 and Backup reserve copy

Thread needs solution

Hi, I had to uninstall and reinstall Acronis true image 2021 due to a problem.
I have recreated the backup scheme but I can no longer find in the options the possibility to check a reserve copy of the backup, very useful function for an additional precaution.
Before uninstalling Acronis, after backing up the harddisk, it automatically created a reserve copy of the backup on another hardisk so if the backup harddisk no longer worked I had the possibility to use the other same backup created on another harddisk.
I read that in Acronis backup from the 2020 version this option would no longer be present but why then I had it before the uninstallation?
Was it because I made updates from backup versions prior to 2020?
If so, is there still a way to restore this important and useful feature to Acronis 2021 as well?
Otherwise I have to make the copies manually ...
Thanks

Reserve copy is only valid for Disks & Partitions backups that are still using .tib files, not .tibx, which were created by ATI 2019 or earlier versions.

All new Disks & Partitions backup tasks for ATI 2020 & later now use .tibx files, hence this option for reserve copy is no longer offered!
