I have set Limit file versions for file and folder backup to 2. However, in the File Backup Data folder I have over 100 fbfFiles_*** sub-folders dating back to 18/10/2008 for their creation date. Some of the early ones have recent Date Modified dates. For instance I have a subfolder fbfFiles_a89 which has a Date Created 18/10/2008 and a Date Modified 23/01/2009. When I open the folder there are 4 .fbf files with have the same Date Created and Date Modified 18/10/2008.
I can't find any way to link files and folder into sets. Which, if any, can I delete or does the number of them just increase and increase.

Thanks Eric, but if I can’t delete them myself how on earth is the number of files saved on my hard drive limited? As I said I have set the limit for file and folder backups to 3. What then does this acually mean?
For example. You have file A and file B. File A changes all the time. When the backups run, it will be backed up each time but you will only have 3 versions saved. File B hardly changes at all. If there are no changes, the backup does not need to backup a new copy. Does this make sense?
File B would remain in your backup. If you really didn't want it anymore, you would need to go through the program to then remove it from your backup. Does that answer all of your questions?
