Deleting Image Restore Points
I'm using Windows 7 Backup and Restore and have created Images (only), (System, C:, Recovery D:) on two different external drives, 0ne the first week on drive 1 and one on drive 2 the second week. I do this because both drive are old and want to ensure if one goes I'll have a second backup.
I've done the setup for the first drive and delete the image restore point from "Manage Space" before backing up the new image on that drive, but the other drive I don't see a way to delete that system restore Image/shadow copy that's created prior to the actual backup.
I could, from Setup, "Change Setting" for the second drive but I can't delete the previous Image from either of the two selections in "Manage Space" unless I configure the setup to "Save & Backup" that second drive first. When I overwrite the image on the second drive then I have two image restore points for that drive, the previous and the current I just did.
Is there a place on the computer itself where these image restore points can be manually deleted. Where are they saved to on the hard drive? I hope I made sense in explaining my problem. Thanks for any help.
