Hi,
I’d like to keep 2 months worth of monthly backups. In the job settings in the “To folder” tab, I can choose the maximum number of files in the folder. Is this how I keep 2 months worth of backups? If so, how do I interpret “number of files”? I see these files, for instance in my backups:

For June, there is one file, but for May and April there are multiple files and I suspect, by the timestamp and hash that these zip files are related. If I say “2 files” to be kept in the folder to represent 2 months, would that work or would I just get partial backups in a multi-part zip backup?

Thanks for any clarification you can give.
