Cleaning up metadata

Thread needs solution

If I've thoughtlessly deleted a backup archive (in this case, a zip file that I was created on an FTP server), is there any way to clean up the metadata so that it doesn't think the backup is still there?

Come to think of it, where is the metadata for backups that are handled by FTP?

 Hello, Jerry.
I'm Quality Assurance Lead of ATI Home product.  I'm very interested in revealing any kind of issues in the product.  I've read your post and managed to reproduce your issue.
The issue will be fixed in the next version of ATI Home.  
I can provide you a workaround  how to solve the issue.

1) Open   C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Acronis\TrueImageHome\Database\archives.xml  in EDIT mode

2) And remove the records relating to the archive

        <ArchiveGroup Key="34" Name="123">
