    After updating my vista business and installing some new stuff, I want to carry out a fresh backup through rescue and recovery 4. Not incremental, a new backup file. Will this automatically get rid of the older one? How may I delete the older one?

    Thank you

    Figured it out. On rescue & recovery, click on the advanced tab and then delete backups. Too bad I can't myself rep points :)

    I am using an IBM thinkpad R50e and I've just figured out that I have about 25 GB taken up by old backup files. I've googled for hours but can't figure out how to delete these files.

    Can anybody explain to a technically limited person :eek: how to delete old back up files from IBM rapid restore ultra 4.0?
