    Question Keep more than 3 (three) backups when using a schedule?

    Hi,

    I'm using the scheduled backup feature of BR16 to do full disk backups of my C: and D: drives on a weekly basis.

    I have selected the retention option "Keep at least 3 backups".

    It seems that when the 4th backup is taken, the oldest one is automatically removed (so ONLY 3 backups are kept).

    Is there a way to keep more than 3 when using the inbuilt scheduling option

    I would actually like to control when they are deleted, but I do want to use a schedule to take the backups in the first place.

    Thanks!

    Sorry, please ignore this post - I have found the option to edit the schedule under "This job strategy" and set my own Retention policy.

    (I've been used to the BR12 Home interface and it has taken me a while to get used to the BR16 interface for some reason)
