How do I force TI to start a new Backup chain (after "Backup Corrupt")?

Thread needs solution

I'm doing Incremental Backups with automatic cleanup.

My latest backup failed: Corrupt Backup.

 

I want to force TI 2017 to start a new Chain. How do I do that?

Clay, the only method that I know to force a new full backup chain would be to use the option to 'Clone task settings' which will create a duplicate of the backup task with the name prefixed by (1) but with all the same configuration settings.

You can then remove the old backup task settings (before running the new cloned task) then rename the cloned task to remove the (1) prefix.

Finally, edit the destination folder for the new cloned task and point this to a new folder on your backup drive to avoid problems with conflicting with your existing backup chain files from the old backup task.
