Cobian Reflector • Incremental backup (empty folders)

Hello,
I've been using Cobian Reflector for a few months now, just a simple task for a backup of some folders on my system. Working with no problem. I'm running Cobian Reflector version 2.07-Beta.
A few weeks ago I had to reinstall all my system from scratch (Windows 11). I reinstalled Cobian Reflector and I rebuilt my task as it was (that is what I think!).
My task is a full backup every friday and an incremental back up every day. What I do not understand is that every day doing the incremental backup folders are created and they are empty (no activity for that day involving that folder). If I remember, and it is here that my memory might be at fault, before reinstalling Cobian Reflector when no activity was found for a folder, an empty folder was not created.
So what I have now is: full backup, six incremental and then another full backup. The six incremental backup are created even if every folders to be backkuped are empty, they are deleted after a full backup (I keep the last 4 full backups).
Is that the expected behavior (and I have a personnel memory problem ) or is there something I did before and that I forgot?
Thanks for any help,
Robert
