Backing up a laptop to Nero

Shelflife · 2016-01-21 16:00:41

I back up my laptop to a Nero external drive every week. Does it over ride the original back up or create a new one each time ? If it creates a new one each time what is the safest way to delete some of the old ones.

Im assuming you didnt set up this backup solution yourself, otherwise you would know what it does and how.

Is it Nero BackItUp you have?
