The archive or backup you have chosen to delete has the check mark.Review the archive or backup that you have selected to delete. If you need to delete other archivesand backups select the respective check boxes, then click Delete selected and confirm the deletion.The filters in this window are from the archives list of the vault view. Thus, if some filters have beenapplied to the archives list, only the archives and backups corresponding to these filters are displayedhere. To see all content, clean all the filter fields.What happens if I delete a backup that is a base of an incremental or differential backup?To preserve archive consistency, the program will consolidate the two backups. For example, youdelete a full backup but retain the next incremental one. The backups will be combined into a singlefull backup which will be dated the incremental backup date. When you delete an incremental ordifferential backup from the middle of the chain, the resulting backup type will be incremental.Please be aware that consolidation is just a method of deletion but not an alternative to deletion. Theresulting backup will not contain data that was present in the deleted backup and was absent fromthe retained incremental or differential backup.There should be enough space in the vault for temporary files created during consolidation. Backupsresulting from consolidation always have maximum compression.4.2.4.
