Backup profile always deletes files in target drive

[holbrog]

Help

I have recently purchased Vice Versa and I'm going mad (maybe I'm just dumb!)

I have created a profile that backs up my laptop (numerious folders).

The first time I ran the backup - all went OK as the portable Hard Drive I was using as the target created the folder structure it needed to receive the backup files etc.

However, now when I run the backup I see files are being deleted from the target drive - files that have not been touched since the last backup was run. It seems to be removing all the files from the Target drive and then replacing them with the same ones from the source drive every time I run it

Surely this is wrong as its taking hours upon hours to do (The complete transfer is about 17 gb).

Am I mistaken or should the backup profile compare the drives and only copy new files or changed files over to the target from the source - not the whole lot each time?

Can someone help please?

Thanks

Hello

That should not happen, the files should not be deleted from the target and copied again. Please stop the backup and do a comparison of source and target. Do the file timestamps of files in source and target match? Are the files marked with a green V (indicating that they are matching).

thanks
