Edit backup settings

Thread needs solution

I have several custom schemes listed under "My Backups". Most, but not all, go to the cloud. I cannot figure out how to edit (or just review) the settings for these. Under OPERATIONS (or, when clicking the down arrow next to the backup name) most just have Reconfigure or Delete. A few have Move, Remove from List, Open Location, Delete. A few others have Clone, etc. I'm sure what I'm seeing is a function of where the backup is directed (cloud, external drive, etc.). But, is there a way to edit or review the settings for each of these plans? They were established quite some time ago, and I'd like to refresh them - but not delete them, especially because I don't even know what files are being backed up by the various plans anymore.

Thanks in advance for any help or advice you may have.

For what it's worth, I have found it's best to redo your backups fresh rather than edit existing schedules and settings.
Acronis seems to get confused or something because sometimes editing them doesn't take.

What I do is create a new backup task, run it and let it complete, then test it, then delete the old.
