Time Machine working too much. every one or two hour it is working, backing something up even if I don't make any change on pc. How can I see what it is backing up while working? Isn't it must be working just one or maybe two time in a day?
Got a tip for us?

Read this Apple Support document for info on how often TM backs up.
System files are constantly being changed, email is coming in, etc. Backs up that stuff every hour. Are the backups large or small?

Working as designed and expected, I would say.
If you would like to customize when TM backs up you could give TimeMachineEditor a shot.
