    Managing a backup from a previous image (eg. deleting system image)


    Hello,

    Before I re-imaged my laptop, I made sure to do a backup of personal files + a system image in case things went wrong.

    The imaging was successful, and now, the new Win7 OS recognizes the old backup as a backup from another computer (as it should).

    However, is it possible to manage this old backup? (manage => edit)

    Now that I don't need the old system image, I would prefer to get rid of it ... plus, I created a backup for my current image so there's quite a bit of space used by backup files..

    Thanks

    Should be able to just delete it, but more detail is needed for the best answer.

    hmm... i just deleted the folder that contained everything pertaining to the image backup...

    that might have done the trick as i can still backup the old files / folders..

    thanks.
