Hello,
I recently created an independent recovery point of certain files and folders on my PC (to be used as an offsite backup). I selected a data drive as well as certain files on my C: drive. All files were successfully backed up to an external USB harddrive...total size ~50 GB.
Since I had space left, I deleted the backups on the external drive then modified the existing backup job to include an additional data drive. However, when I backup up using the modifed settings, the backup only grabbed the new drive. The total backup was now ~ 6 GB.
I deleted the backup job, formatted the external drive and created a new backup using same parameters and drives. Now the total backup is less than 2GB.
So it seems to be grabbing only new or changed files despite the fact that I created a new job and erased the original baseline backup.
How can I create the backup and get all data backed up???
Thanks!
(I am already creating full drive backups, but there are certain files on my C drive that I want rotated offsite, but don't want the full drive backed up)
