Not getting incremental backup
I have ATI Home 2011. I am trying to take an incremental backup of my hard drives, but I appear to be getting a full backup. I initially had the backup settings defined as "Differential". Those came out as either larger or slightly smaller than the original full backup. I reset the settings to "Incremental" and it did not make any difference. I have been doing "Incrementals" for a few years without a problem.
Formerly incrementals would have just a number appending to the full backup name (afullbackup, afullbackup1, afullbackup2, etc). The new backups have the name of the full backup followed by a "(n)" (afullbackup, afullbackup(1)).
Now Looking at the logs, apparently what I thought was a full backup was not "full" but defined as a "differential". Would this mess things up?
Thanks,
