Deleting Old Backups In List

Thread needs solution

I've had problems in setting up backups of Folders & Files. Although I have now solved this, in concquence I have many false backups in the left hand panel list which I want to get rid of. When I highlight and Right click on any of these I select DELETE from the drop down menu. Deleting Files then appears between the source and destination panels, witrh a spinning wheel, but this goes on and on and even after 40 minutes has not deleted the backup name. To stop I have to close the app. How can I get rid of these jobs from the left hand list?

Look to the right of each backup name for a round circle with a downward facing arrow symbol.  Left click on that and choose Delete from the resulting menu.  You will have a choice of deleting the task only or the task and the file itself as well.

Normally, the task delete option is delete the task name from the main displayl.

Another method is

The task name and its settings is really a script file found in

c:\programdata\Acronis\TrueImageHome\scripts.

Deleting the associated script file will prevent the task from re-appearing.

The script file can be viewed via Notepad and the task name can be seen in notepad, upper left corner of the display.l
