Starting fresh need some guidance
Hi,
I was using Acronis 2012 for the last few years and at some point I started getting some file not found messages so I decided to upgrade to 2015 and start fresh.
I currently have a few backup chains on my backup usb drive that I do not want to delete since they are my only backup. But I want to start a fresh backup. I have some problems with missing files in the current backup so I can't really use it anymore but I don't want to delete any of those files because I can use them to get at my backed up data.
Can I just create a new backup and remove my previous backup form the list but leave the backup files from previous backup on the usb drive?
I noticed there is an option for removing the backup from the list but keeping the files so that is what I was planning to do. Then I was going to create a new backup that will write to the same backup drive but under a new name. Then eventually when I have a few backup chains in the new backup I will delete those old backup files.
Does this seem like a good approach? If not how should I go about setting up a new backup?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
