Why Aren't My Backups Deleted Based on the Retention Rule?
- The policy applied to the vault is not enabled. Go to the Policies page to enable the policy.
 - The policy's retention rule was changed during the backup execution. For details, see Why the New Retention Rule I Changed Is Not Applied?
 - The backups are created manually. The policy's retention rule does not apply to manual backups. They can only be deleted manually.
