Can I always keep 1 first backup and last N backups?

Hello,

Let's say I'm setting a monthly full backup and want to keep 3 latests backups. But I'd want to also keep 1 first copy forever.
Is that scenario supported, or I have to create and keep the first backup manually & separately?

Kind regards,
Pavel

Just park the first backup. It will never be deleted then.

Hi cobian, can you please explain what "park" means?

A parked backup will never be deleted automatically. It's just a protection.

Thank you!
I didn't know there's such a feature.

And thank you so much for such a great program, my friends and I have been using it for 20 years!
