Active backup

[Cyberwasp]

Have been using Active backup for business for awhile and would like to remove a few a few older backups. However, right clicking the file and choosing delete isn't working. It says, "(Unable to perform this operation, possibly because the network connection is unstable or busy. Please try again later.)

Is there a way to accomplish this. TIA

That’s a not the way. Use the abb console and reduce the number of versions. That will clear out the old snaps.

That's what I tried after. I changed it from 5 to 3 last week. have it set for every sunday and it ran twice. There' still 5 showing. That's why I tried manually deleting the oldest 1.

Well, it might take some time for it to purge it all. Just don't use any "manual" methods is what I'm suggesting.

Im pretty sure you have to go to ABB then task list, click on task, then version list. From there you can delete the versions

yep, that should work as well.
