    Those settings can be changed in the Menu / Other Tasks / Edit Defaults / Retention Rules

    I always have everything unchecked, i just checked Differential in this screen print to show what i'm trying to say

    Yup, the default is 4, but can be changed.
    I uncheck everything because i don't want Macrium to ever auto delete any of my backups.
    I would rather get an "out of space" error, so i can manually decide what to keep and what to delete.

    I don't have any specific plan on deleting the backups, but getting low on space does prompt me to delete some. Anything close to a year old gets deleted. But now I'm putting them on an external drive, so I have 'space galore', LOL. Still, a year old sounds like a good delete point.
