How to Delete entire Folder from Cloud Backup Storage

    I have the Cloudberry MSP Backup software on a server and use Wasabi cloud storage. In the backup program I want to go into Backup Storage and delete an entire folder that was backed up by mistake from the Cloud Storage. When I click on a folder on the left, it only shows files on the right. So I can't right click the main folder and then go to the right pane and delete the sub-folder. When I right click on the folder on the left side, it does not give an option to delete, it only has restore, update cloud file info, and refresh.

    How would I go about deleting an entire folder from the online storage?

    Which backup format are you using? Legacy or the new backup format? And this is a File based backup, correct?

    I'm 'not sure. It's a backup plan I created on 5/11/2020, I'm using Build 6.3.9.12 and yes it's a file based backup. I'm not sure how to tell what backup format I'm using with regards to new or legacy but hopefully that answers your questions.

    Just Be sure that you have “ allow Data Deletion in Backup Agent” selected under companies: Agent options. You should be able to remove unwanted folders.
