Validate Incremental Archives

Thread needs solution

When validating an incremental archive, will validating the last incremental validate all other files in that archive? In other words; If there is a full followed by 4 incremental files, will validating the 4th incremental file validate the entire set of 5 files or just the last incremental?
Thanks,
Scott

Scott,
As I read the other posts on this issue, the answer is yes. But I don't know this myself for a fact.

If you have already validated the initial archive and all subsequent incremental backups, I think there should be an option just to validate the most recent incremental backup. That would take far less time than validating the earlier backups which have already been validated. But I don't believe there is any such option. I urge Acronis to provide such an option.

Nice bump for a year old post :-)
