Full backup occurred when backup method set to incremental only

Thread needs solution

My True Image 2016 is set to create only incremental versions after the initial full version, on a weekly schedule. It created the initial full backup as expected, then an incremental backup a week later. A month passed with the computer off. When True Image did its next backup, it did another full backup rather an incremental. Any thoughts? I don't have enough NAS space to do full backups that often. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Eric, welcome to these User Forums.

Sorry but difficult to say why you saw a new full backup image being created when expecting an incremental backup without more information.

Please download / use the MVP Log Viewer tool (see the MVP User Tools and Tutorials link in these forums) and check for what messages were posted in the backup task log for when the new full backup was created.

A screenshot of your Backup Scheme settings may also be useful to see.
