Acronis Backup: full backup is created on the first day of each month with "Weekly full, Daily incremental" scheme

Scenario

1. You create a backup plan with a pre-set template for schedule - "Weekly full, Daily incremental"

2. You expect to have only the set amount of full backups, but in fact each month one extra is generated on the first day of the month.

Cause

There is an issue in the product that causes creation of a FULL backup, if the backup plan is run for the first time in the month.

Solution

The issue will be fixed in future updates of the product.

As workaround, create backup plan with a custom backup scheme.
