Those warnings come from BackWPup looking for old backup files to delete from your Dropbox while saving the current backup. This is something you can control in your job settings, last tab -> number of files to keep in folder. * The reason why backup does not find any old files could be it keeps looking for the wrong name scheme. Have you changed the name scheme of your backup job lately( option _Archive name_ in tab _General_)? * Technical sidenote: Moderators have advised us to encourage the use of [Pastebin](http://pastebin.com) or a similar tool to paste longer chunks of code or logfiles. Please use Pastebin or the code button above the comment field next time. Thanks!
