Thanks Gary,
I spoke with Dean this evening and he told me about that, I opted to have my backups saved on my NAS Server, now that I know what it was doing.

Use the config button to point the backup elsewhere.? I send mine to my OneDrive.? Other solutions are to send them to a USB drive or if you have a network, to a network drive.?

Go in to the folder it is pointing to, and delete the old backups.? You will see the progression in size of them.

I try to be diligent about backing up my data but I routinely get this pop up.

I know my disk is not full, and Retry does nothing. Ignore usually move the process along but it will hang up again requiring me to click Ignore several times.
Today I had to hit Ignore three times till I got to this screen, and nothing I did would let me pass.

At this point nothing works but the Abort button, but when I press abort I get this.

but, the backup process screen shows it is not completed

If I click to view the backup log the log is empty, leading me to think I have no backups at all.
Thoughts?
