How do delete archive

Thread needs solution

Hi,
by incident I started a Recovery from a full backup. I actually wanted only to recover my Mails. The recovery stopped with an error message and was not completed. Now TI created probably a partial archive and uses up a lot of disk space. How can I delete this space?

Hello Gerhard,

Let me help you.

To delete you backups from Acronis True Image please do the following:

  1. Run Acronis True Image Home 2010 and click Recovery:

  2. Right-click on your backup archive and select Rename or Move:

  3. Rename or remove the backup archive:
    Rename the archive
  4. Now you have your backup renamed or moved and the information in the database of the product is up to date and correct.

    After that, I may suggest you to start a new 'chain' of backup archives, i.e. a new full backup and a set of incrementals/differentials.

    Please reply to this thread if you have any questions.

    Thank you.
