    @Fish72, Sorry that we don't quite understand what you mean. Could you explain it in more detail?

    Hi,
    I want to make one full backup and then 2 incremental backups and then that the old backup will be deleted :

    FULL BACKUP - INCREMENTAL #1 - INCREMENTAL #2 - DELETE FULL BACKUP AND CREATE A NEW ONE

    @Fish72, The paid edition supports the backup scheme feature, which deletes old backups regularly.
    As for backup scheme, please refer to here: https://www.ubackup.com/help/backup-scheme.html

    @Fish72: Note that the incrementals are based on the full backup and contain the differences only. So if you delete the full backup, the inclrementals turn useless. What you may do is:
    FULL BACKUP#1 - INCREMENTAL#1a - INCREMENTAL#1b - FULL BACKUP#2 - delete FULL BACKUP#1 along with INCREMENTAL#1a+b
