Thread needs solution

Hi All 

 

There is no option to clean up backup revisions on the Mac version below is the screen grab of the windows tutorial to delete them and this tab is not available in the Mac version please help as I have run out of space on my backup drive and need to delete older increments. How do I clean up versions on Mac ?

Anthony, welcome to these public User Forums.

Please see the ATI 2021 User Guide for Mac: Cleaning up backups, backup versions, and replicas for how to manage backups on your Mac computer.

The Clean up versions tool only applies to the Windows versions of ATI to my knowledge.

This is probably where I would question Acronis' common sense.  Wouldn't it make more sense to make sure all of the backup/restore platforms have a complete set of features,  rather than adding on 'Unwanted Junk"?

Dc, not sure that common sense and software design can be used in the same sentence, especially without knowing the heritage involved here?  I suspect that the 2 products started out being owned by different software design teams with experience of coding on their respective platforms only where they focussed on the platform strengths rather than on a common design.

It makes sense to me & you to share a common design....!
