Set how long backups are kept (retention)

Retention controls how long Backvera keeps each snapshot before it is automatically pruned. Snapshots older than your retention window are removed to free up storage.

Change retention

  1. Open the site and go to Settings > Schedule.
  2. Under Retention, set Keep for and choose a Unit (for example, Days).
  3. Click Save changes.
The Retention controls on the Schedule settings screen

Longer retention means more restore points but uses more storage. Your plan sets the maximum retention available – see Backvera plans at a glance.
