Not able to do incremental
I have Acronis 2010. I did a full backup last August and now wanted to do an incremental backup. When I selected the backup archive I was given the message that it was not an Acronis backup or is corrupt.
When I did the original backup, I also performed the check archive right after backing up. Why would Acronis now say the backup is no good? I've gotten this message before and I had to perform another full backup. Who knows, if I need to reference it down the road, I will get the same message. That scares me so I need to find out why this is occuring.
Also, I performed an image backup but did not try the incremental backup as it seemed to inform me it would overwrite the image archive. Is it safe to do incremental on a full image backup. Does it overwrite it? Should I be afraid of doing this?
More importantly is the above corrupt/not Acronis message. The full backup was performed on an extenal hard drive which checks out fine (no bad spots, ran chkdsk).
I am very concerned because I needed an earlier backup to resore from a OS reload and got this same corrupt message at that time also. So I have had this happen before.
