In Sprite I have scheduled the backup process to run at 5am each day and the backup file is to be created on my SD card with a limit of 2 maximum backup files.

Every morning the backup is automatically done, but the backup file size is 4MB. But if I manually run the backup program then the backup file size is 60MB. Why is this huge discrepancy? Is it possible that Sprite is in some way making incremental backup rather than full backup? Is there some option that I need to turn on or off for full backups?

I am running the latest version 3.1.4 of Sprite. In Sprite Backup options, except for 'Encrypt Backup' everything else is checked. I have lots of free space on my 1GB SD card, so space requirement is not a problem.

Thanks.
