Improved Backup Integrity Checks
Additional integrity checks now help NovaBACKUP see if there are files missing on the backup storage and request those missing files with the ongoing backup if that’s the case. Or if there’s more data on the storage than is listed in the index, it will correct the index accordingly and make sure the backups are restorable.
Restore Speed Improvements
Enhanced how the initial scanning and the backup data itself is handled during a restore which significantly reduces the time it takes to restore a backup file – no matter if it is a backup stored on a local storage or in the cloud.
UI Framework Upgrades

Retention Improvements
