Hi All,
I have Created a incremental disk Backup for every 4 hr with a retention of 1 day screenshot attached as per the MS Docs https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/backup/backup-managed-disks#create-backup-policy,
By default the snapshot older than 24 Hrs should get deleted as per the retention but still i am able to find the same .
as per the snapshot of dated 14 April Technically the snap of dated 12 Should have get deleted but still its not .
Please advise if I am doing incorrect if any.

The garbage collection process runs every 24 hours. Based on your retention it should delete the recovery points that are outside the retention range.
Let us know if you are still experiencing this issue.
