Reinstall - retaining my existing incremental backups

Thread needs solution

I have a copy of Acronis TrueImage Home 2010 installed, which for various reasons I need to reinstall. Currently, I have 3 backup jobs scheduled - an image backup of my system partition, a file backup of my data disk, and an application settings backup. All 3 backups are incremental.

After I reinstall, I want to continue my backups - that is, I want to be able to take a new incremental backup of my system partition without having to do a full backup. Is this possible, and if so, what steps would I need to go through to get things set up correctly?

In the worst case, I could just start from scratch, but I'd really rather not (I don't have the spare disk space to do a new full backup without clearing out some of my existing backups).

Thanks,
Paul.

Hello Paul,

Thank you for using Acronis True Image

From Target Archive Location window you have two choices: 1) Create new backup archive and 2) Add to existing backup archive. Choose second and then Browse for backup if program can’t find it automatically. You will be able to continue with your incremental backups.
