Do I need to keep more than one NT backup file ?

[jtrade]

I recently noticed my trading laptop had a FAR fuller hard drive than I expected... I discovered I had >150GB of old NT weekly backups. I had incorrectly assumed that with each new backup, the old one would be removed.

Firstly, I hope it is safe to delete the old ones (because I just did, leaving the most recent) ?

Secondly, how about adding the option to only keep one historic and one current backup file, ie. auto delete any older files ?

I run the default weekly backup when I close the platform on Friday afternoons.

Hello jtrade,

Yes, it is safe to delete the older ones.

I will forward the suggestion to support an option to keep only 1 backup file, so it automatically deletes older ones. Thank you for your feedback.
