I keep a TB drive in my computer all day, mainly for Time Machine Backups.
Today, after I was using Windows on VMWare Fusion, I did a manual backup, and it had 700,000 items to back up, totaling at 60GB. This happens every time I use VMWare Fusion. I have excluded the vitrual machine folder VMWare put in my Documents, but the backup is still huge after using VMWare.
I know for a fact that I personally did NOT manage to alter 700,000 files that need backed up, so what is VMWare doing that makes the backup so large? Is anyone else having this problem? If so, is there a way to fix it?
Thanks.
