Can't save automatic cleanup settings ATI 2015 Build 6525

Thread needs solution

When I create a new backup, or edit an existing backup, the automatic cleanup settings I select are not saved. I made sure that I was on the Backup Scheme Tab when I did the saving.

I had no problems with previous version of ATI.

Thanks for any suggesstions

Depending upon the type of backup scheme you wish to create, here is an example of each type. These can be set up for Disk image, or Partiton, or Files-folders backups. These example show how to set up automatic cleanup so the program will do the deletion after it reaches your set goal of how many chains to retain.

Editing an existing task is not recommended. Rarely does an edited task perform to user expectations. It is usually better to start with a new task using a new non-identical task name and point to a new storage sub-folder so each task has it own storage folder/sub-folder. Old task can be stopped or deleted from the task listings.

GH11. Create Custom Full Backup Scheme w/auto cleanup....Store/Keep 4 versions (chains). Use whatever number best fits the individual needs..

GH12. Create Custom Incremental Backup Scheme w/auto cleanup. ...Keep Full plus 6 Inc per chain. Store/Keep 4 chains. Use whatever number best fits your needs.

GH13. Create Custom Differential Backup Scheme w/auto cleanup. ...Keep Full plus 2 Diff per chain. Store/Keep 2 chains. Use whatever number best fits your needs.

Note in my picutures or illustration examples the use of the word "custom". Be sure and include that term in your exampes
before saving the tasks.

If you want the same scheme screen to appear on the next task creation,
you must use the term "custom" plud click the "save as default" setting.
The actual save does not occur until the task is completely finished and saved.

Good. Remember, the features selected basically relate to the single task being created.
For the next task,you may have to selectd the same features over again in order to get them included in the task you are working on.
