automatic deletion of backups in ASZ?

Hello. I'm new to the forum and to computers as well, so I apologise in advance if I'm asking silly questions.

I've been using ATI 2009 for two months on a Windows Vista Home Premium SP1. I used the one-click protection to weekly schedule a full image of my hard drive to be saved in the Acronis Secure Zone. According to the help file, a full image is created everytime and the old image is deleted automatically. This is what's been happening so far, the whole process satisfactorily taking place in the background and me only having to check the logs afterwards.

But for the last couple of weeks the process gets interrupted and I get a warning about ASZ being full and asking me for confirmation to delete the old backup. I have scheduled the whole process to take place when I'm not using the computer, so when I resume my work it is very annoying to see that the process hasn't finished and is there waiting for me to decide. I haven't changed any settings in ATI nor resized the ASZ, so I'm wondering: why is not the old back up deleted automatically as before? What has happened?

Thank you in advance.

 

Hello Frencho,

Thank you for using Acronis True Image Home 2009

The source of the issue is lack of free space for backup consolidation. In order to solve that issue you should slightly increase Acronis Secure Zone. Launch the program Tools -> Manage Acronis Secure Zone -> Increase Acronis Secure Zone. See if the issue persists.
