Hi
I am new to Cobian Reflector, I have a huge amount of pictures that is already backed up as a whole on external disk, I would just like to do an daily incremental backup of the changes on a local storage to keep recent changes and history.
My question is : Is it possible to do an incremental backup without having done a full backup at first ? Like having a seed before incrementing... By default the app seems to always do the full backup at first, which is too big for me.
For example by clearing the Archive flags ? By initializing a file of "already backed up files" somewhere ? By specifying a "horizon" for backups, like "take only what changed for the last x days" ?... I would be able to generate a file with a list of the directories and their content if needed...
Thanks for your help !
