Windows 10: Potential ransomware access to the FileHistory storage

Hi there,I use FileHistory for backups, and it's a great tool that I really like. I've set it up for everyone here, and we are quite happy with it.However, I can't stop thinking about how FileHistory stores the credentials used to access the network share where the backups are located.

can't access older FileHistory

I can't access FileHistory on an older, filled external drive.

How do I access the edb, xml, and data files since if I start FileHistory on that drive

it starts a new FileHistory also telling me the drive is full.

Is there a program that let's me access my older FileHistory?

It is Windows 10 I believe.

Thanks,

Larry
