I just got this software based on recommendations.
It has serious English issues. Very confusing.
Upon setting up the "Disk Space Managment Scheme" I got to this (see pic):

I want to know what the second option does exactly. "The previous N versions of obsolete backup image file...." If I set it to 3 & have it set to back up daily...start backing up on Monday...then Tuesday...then Wednesday...then on Thursday will it delete Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & start all over?
*BTW, the first option ("The program will automatically delete...") doesnt work like you think it would. Deleting backups beyond the set time & keeping only the recent backups....NOOOOPE, it waits to the set time and then deletes all backups & starts the backup process over 🙁
Also, can anyone elaborate on the check box at the bottom?
For example: Ive got the first option set ("The program will automatically delete...") to 2 weeks. So if I have that check box ticked does this mean that in 2 weeks the program will delete all my backups and start over but keep my original backup...from which it will build upon?
I would rather it started a fresh backup.....should I uncheck that box?
