Full backup created in Acronis 11; incremental backups in Acronis 2013

Thread needs solution

Is it possible to create an incremental backup using Acronis 2013 if the full backup was made using Acronis 11? In other words, do backups made in earlier versions of Acronis have full functionality in Acronis 2013? Or should I delete the original full backup and create a new one using Acronis 2013 so that the full backup and future incremental backups are all made in Acronis 2013?

ATI2013 may be able to restore version 11 backups, though I wouldn't count on it. ATi version 11 is six years old, so I wouldn't risk it. You don't need to delete your old backups though. If you ever want to restore one, if it won't restore with ATI2013 you can restore with the version 11 bootable Rescue Media.

I think it's best that you start with a brand new backup task.
