Backup Compression

Thread needs solution

I have been using Acronis 10 Home Backup with High Compression. Data transferred to a Backup Disk. Can anyone explain why the backup reverts to normal compression before it starts the backup. Total size of data to backup is 125Gb size of backup 119Gb which makes about a 5% compression. Computer system is a self build running Windows XP Pro SP3 32 bit. Although there are some .JPG files can't be more than 10-15GB. Any suggestions welcome

Hello Pip,

Thank you for posting. I will do my best to help you with your question.

Can you please clarify what do you mean exactly by - the backup reverts to normal compression before it starts the backup?

I would also recommend this detailed article explaining compression in Acronis products.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thank you.
