My Passport has filled up using the WD Backup application. According to the manual only files that change will be backed up. Yet when I look at what I can restore, some unchanged files seem to appear listed in a recent backup (last altered in 2012). Presumably I will have to delete the files somehow or do a general erase and start again, but how can I prevent the device from filling up again? I only have a maximum of 485GB of used space on my C: Drive to backup, but my My Passport has 1.5 TB of used space and doesn’t have room for a new backup!
The issue seems to have fixed itself somehow. Now Windows Explorer shows that only 514GB are now used. So I don’t get messages about the device being full and I get messages showing normal completion of backups. Hopefully won’t happen again.
Thanks, Zero_Pop_Gro.
