What is the difference between an incremental and differential backup?

An incremental backup contains all changes made since the latest incremental or full backup creation. If one full backup and several incremental ones were created, all of these backups must be saved in the same folder so that you will be able to restore the data. If one of incremental backups or a full backup is deleted, there is no way to restore this backup set, since all backups are dependent on each other.

A differential backup contains all changes made since the full backup creation. To restore a differential backup, you should place it in the same folder with the full backup.
