How to do a monthly full backup and overwrite each time?

Everytime I do a manual run (to test it), it appends to it. I can't figure out how to change this. The destination options are set to overwrite, but the Media Set says Keep Data Infinitely - Do not allow overwrite. I don't see an option to change this. I'm doing a Backup-to-disk.

From Tools\Options\Media Management make sure the Global Overwrite is either FULL or PARTIAL

Job definition should be OVERWRITE

Media Set OPP should be "27 Days",  APP should be "0 - Never Append"
