Is it possible to analyze the restore point data only?

Post by peyoga »

My full disk backup is taking 168GB and each restore point size has been 6,38GB, 7,58GB, 4,41GB and 6,41GB for the past few days (backup is done once per day). Is there anyway I can analyze what's the data for each restore point? I just want to understand why each incremental backup is taking this amount of space when my PC is barely used between the backup points. How can I debug this to better understand my data and see if I can lower the data being used for each restore point?

Hello peyoga,

Unfortunately it's not possible to display such information. Likely it's a Windows system files if you are backing up operating system volume.

Additionally, please keep in mind that any high transnational application is likely to cause many block to change which in turn will make incremental backups grow large.
