          Not yet, the 22.05 testing has taken all my time. However I do think this looks like a real problem. I'll test it as soon as I can.

            @stephenw10 Any luck by now? Confirmed (as it's now a few months later) that my manual backups are still being overwritten.

              No sorry it got pushed to the back of the queue. I'll try and get something done over the weekend.

                  Sorry, the coming release took priority over everything.

                  I'll try to replicate it as soon as I can.

                      It's going to be after the 23.01 release. That's currently using every development resource.

                        @stephenw10 Now that 23.01 has been released is this going to be pushed back again?

                            Just to be clear has this ever worked for you?

                              Ok, this is a backend issue. I also opened a public redmine to track it:

                                @stephenw10 Sorry, didn't reply in time. I don't recall it ever working as all my manual ACB... backups... disappeared as soon as I hit 100. Appreciate you looking into this and finding the issue on the backend.

                                  Given what found in the backend I don't think it's worked in quite a while. I'm surprised we haven't seen any more tickets/threads about it really.

                                    @stephenw10 Well I appreciate you continuing to reply as you could have just written me off... Glad it's getting traction.

                                        It's waiting for dev time to correct the back end. Unfortunately that's extremely limited with the upcoming release of 23.05.1 and 2.7.
                                        I'll reach out and see what sort of timeline we're looking at but I'm not expecting anything soon.
