Large Incremental Backups
My daily backups of my OS driver which is a 250GB SSD are taking up 60GB. The drive is 188GB full. In the past I remember that it was only ~10GB. Why is it so large now? I can no longer have the full backup be once a month becase it's filling up my 1TB backup drive. Is it supposed to be this large? Does everyone else have such large ones for their OS drives? I can't imagine that 60GB are being modified everyday. My projects are all on separate drives. This is purly an OS drive.

I don't believe I have anything relocating data. I don't defrag my disk. Could there be some Windows setting that's doing this?

Do you have more than 1 internal disk? if yes, both are being included in your backup if your backup type is "Entire PC"
Some SSD's also relocate data to level out the usage.

I have 5 SSDs and the backup HDD. Only the OS drive is set for that backup. My other drive which I have an incremental backup on works fine and the backups only take up about 3MB/day.
