    Hi,

    My Google Drive is constantly filling up as UpdraftPlus does not delete older backups. I have checked expert settings to delete local backups but that is most likely not even relevant as it concerns backups on the remote storage.

    Any ideas?

    Hello,

    Assuming you have one website connected to Google Drive, I would recommend carefully removing the old backups you do not want from this storage location and leaving the ones you do want.

    Next, delete all of your backup sets in Existing backups but do not tick Also delete from remote storage as per this screenshot.

    Lastly use the rescan remote storage link to add the backups to your Existing backups.

    Thank you, that seemed to do the trick!
