Hello
I use Windows Backup weekly to back up music, pictures, video, documents, email, etc. It runs automaticaly and I pretty much ignore it. However, I just noticed that the total used space on my external drive is 56 gig and the used space on my C deive is only about 45 gig. Is that normal? I thought that Windows Backup for Vista only added new or changed files to the backups. It seems to me that the total backup shuld be less in size than the C drive since the C drive also has the OS (Vista Home Premium) and my programs. What do I do when my external drive runs out of room? Perhaps I should start deleting old backup sets. Thanks for shedding some light Harmon |
